    ‘Sé a dubhairt sé le búistéir na sgine,
    “Fan socair, féach romhat, bhí réidh”
    Is go mór mhór gur measa duit t’anam.
    Ná mac inghean Báb a’tsaoir
    Thíos ag an gcúirt seo Sheághain fhada
    Tá an gearra-phoc aluinn mhéith
    Seanchas déinidh feasda
    Ar mac inghean Bháb an tsaoir
    Bhí ceann air chomh mór le ceann tairbh
    Croiceann is mheara dá réir,
    Ni measfainn fé bhun giní gur fiche é.
    An phinginn is lugha san saoghal

    NÍL AGAM 'SA SAOGHAL
    (Ceól: An Spailpín Fánach)
    Níl agam sa saoghal acht aon sé pingne amháin
    Is a Mhuire cad a dheanfaidh mé leó.
    Iad a dh'imirt, iad a d'ól iad a chaitheamh ar spórt.
    Nó iad a thabhairt ar ceól do'n phíobaire
    Rinne mise smaoineamh ar a ' maoin a bhí im thimpal
    Cuir mé chugham síos im phóca iad,
    Ceannuigheas bheirt is bríste dhe'n eudach ba daoire,
    Tobac do'n mnaoi críonna is bróga.
