S? mo chreach is mo dh?th, is nach clo?te an galar an gr?,
Is mairg go mb?onn s? a m?, seachtain is l?.
Do bhris s? mo chro? is do mhill s? an t-easnamh i’m’ l?r,
Is codladh n? bhfaighim ach ag taidhreamh ar me dhian-ghr?.
‘S? mo chreach is mo ch?s, nach gc?itheann s? sneachta ‘gus sioc;
Mise ‘s mo ghr? do bheith i l?r na farraige amuigh,
Gan loing, gan b?d, gan ?rthach n? aon n? ar bith
Ach caite insa tsn?mh is mo dh? l?imh casta ina crios.
S’ do casadh slua s? orm s?os chun Lios Bhaile Dh?ith.
Is d’fhiafra?osa d?obh c?’n n? do leighisfeadh an gr??
D?irt duine acu liom go ci?in, go taise ‘s go tn?th:
An rud a th?ann ins an chro? n? scaoiltear as ? go br?ch.
Is a chail?n bhig ?ig, n? p?s an seanduine liath,
N? cuir do dh? l?imh le gr? d? thairis aniar.
Mar t?’n t? beag ?g is f?s n?or th?iing duit ciall
Is m? mhaireann t? beo beidh m?rchuid leanbh id’ dhiaidh.
