    Maidean cheóig nuair éirighim
    Is me ag gabháil trí bhárr na gcoillthe
    Annsúd-sa a bhuail an treighid mé
    Ná leighisfidh na liaigheann'
    Annsúd do dhearchas maighdean I lúib na coille gréine (grí-ne)
    Gur phreab mo chroidhe is gur éirigh
    A's gan deimhin ar í fhaghail
    One foggy velvet morning,
    Thro' woodlands I went walking,
    My anguish most enthralling,
    In search of love's cure.
    There I espied a maiden,
    In an alcove most adjacent,
    My heart which palpitated,
    In snares of love's pure.
