- Ní rí fíre acht flaith nimhe,
rí fíre flaith na cruinne;

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