    (I)
    A Dhiarmuid Mhic Mhurchaidh (?) rinne an eagcóir
    Nuair a dhíol tusa Éire le geal-sáradh do chroidhe
    Thug tú (?) do námhaid 's chaill tú do náire
    Nuair a ghoid tú an t-óig-bhean ar Chonnachtaibh thiar

    (II)
    Mo mhallacht an lá a chuaidh tú thar sáile
    le cuidiughadh fághail ó'n t-Sasanach Buidhe (?)
    Ní bhéidh agat a choidhche acht mallacht do thíre
    Is íseal an caraid (?) aghat é ins a lá no san' oidhche

    (III)
    D'oibir tú go treathamhail agus naírigh tú do shinnsear
    'S ró-bheag an mheas bhéidheas ort féin 's ar do chlann
    Béitheas do dhíbirt as ach toigh agus bóthan
    'As tú do bhéidhiteach fiadhain faoi dhídean na gcrann
