    Is mitidh dúinne trácht
    Ar Iarthar Conntae an Chláir
    Mar a bhfásann úbla milse cúmharta
    Áirní dúbha, sa mbláth
    Bíonn loingeas ann is báid
    Ag ródaigheacht ann gach lá
    Bíonn bric is eisc ar an dtuinn go h-aérach
    San cala gléigeal bhán.

    Is mé fé dhuileabhar glas na gcraobh
    Is gearr annsúidh na gcéadth
    Gur cúala gúth n-éan
    An ceól ba bhínne riamh dar sinneadh
    Ar tlúg t seinm téad
