    budh deas an dusty miller,
    a dheanfeadh mo shean bhean bhocht.

    Is truagh gan shuas sa chlúdaigh agam,
    A shean bhean bhocht
    Is truagh gan shuas sa chludaigh agus lán mo dhorn de shúithe
    Go dheanfainn uisce suithe
    de mo shean bhean bhocht.
    V
    Is trua gan shuas sa phríosun agam,
    A shean bhean bhocht,
    Is truagh gan shuas sa phríosun ar son guideadh pighinne
    Ní bhfuighfea amach a choidhche
    Mo shean bhean bhocht
    VI
    Do dheanfinn teach mór dó mo
    shean bhean bhocht
    Dheanfainn teach mór duit agus cheannochaidh bó duit
    B'fhearr liom buachall óg,
    Ars' an t-seanbhean bhocht.
