    FEARGHAL ÓG MAC AN BHAIRD cct.

  1. Ní rí fíre acht flaith nimhe,
    rí fíre flaith na cruinne;
    do bhí ar neamh fan lia lighe
    fear fine, Dia agus duine.
  2. Ar chléith dhoinnbhear dia hAoine
    do coinnmheadh Dia dar ndín-ne;
    daor do bhraith an raon róin-ne
    laogh na hóighe, an flaith fíre.
  3. Rí fíre an fear nar chronuigh
    cneadh na cíche dar gcabhair;
    a chóir is é ar n-a oighidh
    oidhir Dé tóir a tabhaigh.
  4. Tar a thal tiad a dhaoine
    níor mhiadh le mac na hóighe
    dá chíos ní um chneidh na cíghe
    rí fíre, gein na glóire.
  5. Tug malairt do Mhac Moire
    slat do agair{}
    ar aoi a dhéire mar dhlighe
    caoi cridhe déine, a dhuine.
  6. A Pheadair, déaghaidh dhúin-ne,
    déanaidh, a easbail fhíre,
    guidhe ar mo chrú le chéile;
    tú féine id dhuine dhínn-ne.
    Ní.
