  1. An Bás

    I
    D’éirigh mé ar maidin an ceathramhadh lá de Mhárta
    Agus bhí mé luathmhar aigeantach ag amharc ar an áirnéis
    Ag árdú suas an charraig dom ché chífinn acht an Bás
    Ag gearrad chuile ait ghiorra is teach ó Mhám an Sgárdáin
    An Bás:
    “Is gluais ort a Sheáin agus bí liom.”
    II
    Roinn mé leis an carannthas acht bhí sé sin ró-láidir
    Mar is minic a rinne carannthas cara maith de námhaid
    An Bás:
    Ní ghlacfaidh mise carannthas ná leithsgéala dén tsórt sin
    Acht buail amach go tapaidh go gcroithfaimid an Mám suas
    Agus gluais ort a Sheáin agus bí liom.”
