  1. Amhrán

    Cailín na nár an domhain ¶ Gur tú mo grád gan dabht

    Cailín na nár an domhain
    Gur tú mo ghrádh gan dabht
    Mar is cuidhce deas do cham agus do cnaibh sí
    And if I had a thousand pounds
    I would lay the money down
    In fhonn tú bheith agam-sa i bportlairge
    By this and that indeed
    And that bible that you read
    Ní sgairinn leat ar airgead ná ar ór buidhe
    Agus tógfainn-se duit long
    Agus go rachfaimís anonn thar fairrge
    Agus ní baoghal dúinn bheith baidhte

    Cam Dubh
    Dá mbeinn-se féin im éinín
    Ag léimrigh ó chrann go crann
    Nú eascú fada caol dubh agus mo geilliú cois taobh na h-abhainn
    Do scriobhfainn-se cúpla bhéarsa
    Don spéir bhean le gradh dá cam
    Agus cómhradh ní fheadfainn a dheanamh
    Tá an meagraim ró mhór im cheann
