“Seachtmhain roimh 'el Pádruig”
(continued from previous page)1.
Seachtain roimh 'el Pádraig
Go tlá ar mo leaba bhíos sa
Do chonnaic mé samhailt mo mháthair
Go cráidhte is í síor ghol
Éirigh id suidhe a Phádraig
Is cráidhte atá an croidhe 'gam
Trí bás do deirthear álainn
Do fhágas an Cnoc Buidhe 'muigh2.
Bhíos sa go h-eadhtuirseach
Go h-eadareach an lae úd.
Go bhfuairis mo seafaire
La h-abhel is sop four air
Gan aoinne beó a bhain leis
A gheala ná á ghleasa
Ach saighdiúirí ó Shasana
Is a mbangnotaí ar gach taobh de.3.
Is do dhruidis leis an Oifigeach
Is do labhair is go séimh leis
Cad a dhein a cholann bocht
Ná bainfí di a cuid éaduig
Is gearra bhíos gan freagra
Is ba dhealbh dúbhach mar sgéal é
Na liumhfí mear do leagaint air
Go dtiochfadh na cronneirí.(continues on next page)
