    A dheirbhshiúr dhílis, sa dheirbhshiúr charthannach
    Chuaidh tú thart aréir agus ní tháinig tú isteach cugam
    Bhí'n teach scuabtha. 'san luachair craitte agam.
    'S plátaí péitir is measa breaca agam.
    Hó-bá, ba-lú, is codlaidh a leanbh bán.
    Hí - ó hó-rú is codluigh a pheata geal.

    Tá sé seacht mbliana ó tugadh d'fhear mé
    'S grúis mo chéile ariamh ní fhaca mé
    Tá an seachtú mac ar mo ghlúin anois agam
    'S mháithrín dhilis nach truagh libh mise annso.
    Hó-bá, bá-lú, is codlaidh a leanbh bán
    Hí-ó - hó-rú is codlaidh a pheata geal.
