    Trí mhíle fear gréigeamhail d’fág dilleachta ‘gol.
    Fhad a bhéidheas tuillte n-árd-cnóc na rioth ‘sa “tsean gleann”-
    No tonnaidh thréan thóraigh a’ greadadh na mbeann-
    No aingle geal dhoire ag eiteall ar neamh-
    No éisg lughmhar loch Ghartan go méidhreach ‘s tsrúth-
    Béidh cuimhne ar an lá seo ‘s na bliadhanta le teacht
    Ag uachtran na nam sin a’s an mbéidh faoi na smacht
    ‘S ní chríonfaidh, ‘s ní siuolfaidh ‘s ní rachfaidh ar moill
    Bród-beannuighthe Chloinn Chonaill as Naomh Colmcille.
    A Naomh neartmhar ar talamh, as níos cumachtaighe ar neamh,
    Dearc annas ar an chruinniughadh seo i nGartan indiú;
    Gus fágh duinnse tá díbheartha i ngleann seo na ndeor
    Bhéith leatsa go siorruidhe ‘ móladh Dia annsa Ghlóir.
