    D'arduigh liom go Geataí Flaithis
    Tháinig an ? faoi na clócaí geala
    Thug sé ? dáréag ar mo anam
    Agus i nIfreann thios a bhí mo leabaidh.
    VI
    D'ísligh liom go geataí ifrinn,
    An áit ar sguabadh an gruaig de mhullaigh mo chinn
    Ritheadh riollán fola trí lár mo chuim
    A Mhuire agus a mhaidean beannuighthe
    Sgread mo chroidhe.
    VII
    Tháinig sí - an Mhaidean mhaiseach,
    Chuaidh sí ar a glúine geala,
    D'íarr sí impidhe ar a h-aon Mac a' leinbh -
    Mo leigint cois claidhe no garraidhe
    Mar an londubh ar barraí na gcrann,
    Mar an éasóg faoí an talamh
    Nó imeasg na gcríostuidthe ar Neamh.
    Leigeadh beo seacht mbliadhain é, agus nuair a fuair sé bás chuaidh sé go Flaithis.
