    Ní hualach do dhuine a bhrat
    Ní hualach don gcapall an srian
    Ní hualach don chaora an tolann
    Ní hualach don chollainn an chiall.
    Dá fhaid é an lá tagann an oidhche
    Dá fhaid é an Samhradh tagann an Gheimread.
    Agus dhá fheabas é an duine
    Crapann an aois é.
    Bean táilliúrtha agus bean tinceára
    Sin beirt bhan na réidtuigeann le chéile.
    Ceathrar sagart gan abheith sannthach.
    Ceathrar Franncach gan abheith buidhe.
    Ceathrar greaisaire gan abheit bréaghthach
    Sin dhá reág na fuil ins an tír.
    Dúbairt bean liom go ndúbairt bean leí
    Go léimfead sí tigh ar mhuga tae.
    Nuair a thugaid an míol mor ar an maing
    Agus an maing ar shliab mis
    Nuair a chaillfhid na sagairt a sainnt
    Sin é an uair a thiocfhaid a chainnt don bfiach dubh
    Seacht seachtmaine reamhra ó Shamhain go Nodlaig
