  2. Ceol an Tincleora
    (i)
    Nuair a thigeas a stócach abhaile tráthnóna
    Buailfidh sé stróc ar an mhadadh
    D'amharc seisean síos ar an eitean bheag chaol
    An é sin ar sníomh tú ar maidin?
    Mur ndeanfaidh tú gníomharthaí thar mar a tcidhimse
    Admhuighim don t-saoghal go mbainfidh mé
    damhsa gan píoba, le caol bata díreach
    Amach as do thaobhann mo chailín.
    (II)
    Cuirim síos teinidh agus deargam an phioba
    Is iomdha ceann sgriob a bhíos ar maithreacha
    Romhair mé an diog agus cart mé an carn aoileach
    Agus sheol mé na caoraigh as an ngeamhair
    Bím seal ag cur deaidean ar dhoras na gaoithe
    Seal eile ag tabhairt téidheadh don leanbh
    Mo shoc Rí dilís nach mór m'adhbhair caoinnte
