Go dt gur fhs na hadharc uirthi
Bliain is cad is corradh laethe
Go dtinig an aois go tran uirthi
Bhi s gcr bheag ins an cheo
Go dtinig feileoin is gur alaigh s
Thart an rd san bealach mr
Gur lean a tir go gear uirthi.
Ni raibh nduine ar a tir ach donnch g
Is dith s an ln san t-anlann air
Ni raibh aige ina dhorn ach ceap tine mr
Agus leag s anuas n arradh
Nuair a chuala an gabhar bn go raibh s ar lr
Thug s lim chun trrthla
Thug s rs s ni raibh s ssta
Is leag s spon an tillira.
Chomh cruinn le rn gur thg s feoil
Gan pis gan mrn dibhirce
Ach dith s cib agus barr an fhraoich
Slnls min is craobhgai
Draoin is dreas is cuilcann glas
Gach n ar dhath na h-inleoga
Cutharn slibhe, duillir file
Caora srana agus blainsogai.
Chuaigh s dhol cios le caiftn spits
Is chraethnaigh a croi go dtrigf
Chaith s an oche ar bheagn bidh
Mar ndil is go geasfa far uirthi
Dfan s a iche I dtin ros coill
Is chaith sgo plisra
Go dtinig an slua ar maidin go luath
Is thug siad amach as éirinn .
