    'Gus cuirfid mé gúna síoda ort a Chailín an tSleibhe Ruaidh

    Ach an deallramh a bhí in a suile d'on oidhche a ndeanfadh lá
    A rún mó chroidhe anois?? díbir thusa mearughadh an graidh seo uait
    Nó is rún damh fanacht díomain seal ar mullaidh an tSleibhe Ruaidh
    "A Mhaighdean mhaiseach mharanta goidé seo atá tú rádh
    Dearc síos an gleann faoí bhruach na mbeann agus breathnuigh mó cuid bárr
    Tá togha na bfear a's na mbeathach agum ag obair ann go cruaidh
    Tá stór a's maoin go leór agam do chailín an tSleibhe Ruaidhe
    Má tá stór a's maoin go leór agat chan damhsa is fearrde é

    Do shuidhe thuas i dtoighe an ostaibh dó dhrabhlas bocht gan céill
