    An t-aon bhreac nach gcodhluigheann san oidhche.
    Laschon.
    Tá uische i Loch Éirne,
    agus sléibhte i gConmara,
    Nuair a labhruigheas an Sasanach beárla
    Ina bheal a bhíos a theanga.

    Chaith sé an chéad tuistiún solas a bheith aige san oidhche chomh maith leis an lá.
    Chaith sé an dárna tuistiún dá mbeadh sé thuas ar bhárr túr árd agus dá dtuitfheadh sé anuas go d'tiocfhadh sé ar bhonnaibh a chosa.
    Chait sé an triomhadh tuirtiún:-

    Ní truimide each sraon
