- A sgríbhionn luigheas tar lear

ar amus Uilliam Nuinnseann:
triall ar céilidhe 'na cheann,
ar ccéiline d'íath Éireann. - Innis uaimsi dá ucht slim
an ceó tuirrsi atá ar m'inntinn:
nocht cúis m'imnidh dá aithle
dá ghnúis tibhrigh thonnghairthe. - Doighthe cuartaighthe croidhe

na caraid dár threisi ar dtoil,
ní mharuid 's meisi ar marthuin. p.140 - Barr ar gach teidhm mar tá sinn

ní marthain é, ní hoighidh. - Dursan damhsa a dheaghuil ruinn,
fuighioll áir m'áosa cumuinn,
grian m'inntleachta úair oile,
clúain inghealta m'ionmhuine. - Áineas gan imdheargadh n-áoin,
féile ghnáth gan ghlóir ndíomháoin,
searc pobal, freagra go bfos,
tobar eagna gan fhorus. - Fuarusa re hais an fhir

acht an tan dearlaicthior dhi
