    Amrán.
    Is brónach an leanbh,
    Ag teacht na hoidhche;
    A ghruag ceangailte déin fheamnach.
    Óchón mo Mhallaí ó.
    Nuair a thiocfaidhan oidhche orm
    Is gasta cos m'athair.
    Agus fluich a shúil.
    Nuair a gheobadh sé mé mo bradán cois cladaigh.
    Ochón mo Mhallaí Ó.
    A bhean anonn na trátha
    Dhá scoilfeadh mo ghreim.
    Ná trí tonnaí mór ag teacht aniar
    Ochó mo Mhallaí Ó.
    A ghadaigh ní scaoilfeadh mé do ghreim
    Beidh tú annsin go níocfaidh tú
    Turas an tslabhach na Rannaidh.
