    “Tá mé mo shuidhe ó d'éirigh an ghealach aréir ...”

    1.
    Tá mé mó shuidhe ó d'éirigh an ghealach aréir
    Ag cur teineadh síos arís a feadadh go geur
    Tá bunadh an toighe na luidhe, as tá mise liom fhéin
    Tá na coiligh ag glaodh, as tán tír ná gcodladh ach mé.
    2.
    Casadh bean sidhe damh síos ag atha bheul an atha
    As d'iafruigh mé díthe rabh nídh ar bith sgaoileadh a grádh
    Labhair sí go caoibheamhal, aoibheamhal, subhailce ar mhnáibh
    'S má théidh sé fán chroidhe, ní dóigh go scaoilfear go brathach.
    3.
    Ag buachailleacht bó, ní dóigh gur chleacht mé ariamh é.
    Ach ag imirt's ag ól le h-óig mhnáibh deasa fá shliabh
    Má chaill mé mo stoir, ní dóigh gur chaill mé mó chiall
    'S ní mó liom do phóg nán bhróg tá caitheadh lé bliadhain.
    4.
    Más buachaill ón Éirne meas bhreugfainn mo chailín deas óg.
    Ní iarrfainn bó spré uirthi, tá mé fhéin saidhbhir gó leor.
