    Thug maois' a mgionna fíor
    Agus a gheallamhaint fé fhiadhnais 'airm
    Orm-sa nach gcuirfeadh gRuaim
    Nó go dtéigheadh sé ar shluagh na marbh
    Thug inghean Iarla dhúin Mhic A'Treóin
    Na mionnaí móra go(de) ghór mhear;
    Nó go dteighead Naois' Mac Uisnig i gcré,
    Nach ngabhfadh sí féin le aon-fhear
    Dá mbéadh fhios ag an mnaoi údan anocht
    Go bhfuil Naois' a'dul i mbrat sa gcré
    Ghoilfeadh sí go beacht
    Agus ghoildinn-se fá reachtaí lei.
    Agus dá ngoilfeadh sise só sheacht
    Do ghoilfinnse fó ocht 'na diaidh
    Mo mhallacht ortsa a mharaidheacht
    'S tú tharraing sinn ar an gCraoib 'Ruaidh
    S'gur le do chomrádh mín blasta,
    Meall tú sinn ar aon nós
