    An capall : Ó d'inis tú dhamsa mo shagart uadhachta
    Ní raghad ar sceulaideacht ná ag déanadh buaidheatha
    Ach tabharfad mo mhallacht don té bhain uaim iad
    Agus do chuir ag tarraingt an ghuail mé.
    Ach dá bhfaighinn aoinne a scaoilfeadh na cruadh-ghaid
    Raghann abhaile mar a bhfuiginn mór-chuid
    Prátaí agus brean agus bainne anuas air
    Is do gheibheadh Nóra tuighe nó luachair
    A bhogfadh me leaba is do léigfeadh chun suain mé
    Is dá fhiosróchadh an máistir ansan dá bhuachaill
    Maisteach ní fheadar a dhéarfadh an buachaill
    Stailceach salach agus rian an ghuail air
    Is ní mise an capall is measa fuaireadh
    Mar níor dheineadh mé ghoid ná fuaideacht
    Ach mar don láir bhán mór úd
    A bhí ag sin-sean mháthar Sheáin Uí Chuanaigh.
