- Freccair meisi, a Meic Coisi—
Cia as eolcha anāid anoisi?—
innis, a Ioraird nach uis,
cia rī as fhírferr dā n-úarais. - Coiscc dīom, a gille, a meic Briain.
nā cuir mesi so mōirghliaidh
ní bhér breth dā ccuire im chenn
eidir ardfhlathaibh Ērend. - Do fhiarfaigh dīomsa an flaith fēin
mar do fhiarfaighis, a fhir fhéil,
ca hédāil, ca maith as mó
dā bfuair ollamh i n-énlō. - As edh do rāidhesa ris,
re Maīl Sechlainn Slēibhe Mis,
gurb í ēdáil Torna thiar
ō Chorc mac Luigdech lāimhfhial. - Tucc mīle bó dona búaibh,
is an cēd each as fherr fhuair,
is cūicc trīocha céd dā ccrodh,
eidir fhēr ocus arbhor. - Do-radadh dō trian Temhra
ō bile lāomdha Lemhna;
do-rad dó, 's nīr chomha cert,
cisde a athar i n-éinfhecht. - Nā hāirimh ar Chorc na ccliar,
gē do-bheradh toir is tiar,
giodh hī Banba na broide
no dhāiledh dā dheghoide. - Gen gur tú rom thóccaib féin,
a Meic Coisi, a ollaimh fhél,
ag súd Banbha re bliadhain
duit, ar ó Nēill Noīghiallaigh. - Éiricch co Temhraigh na ttrēd,
mar a tā mo shelbadh sét:
caith bliadhain ón oidhche anocht
i ccennus Ērenn na n-ardphort. - Tair chuccam i ccend bliadhna
co hĀth Cliath, do réir riaghla,
co n-órdaigher, nī lescc lem,
duit th'ollamhnacht is t'ferann. - Nī hē sin do-rindes ris,
re Maoil Sechlainn Slēbhe Mis:
tuccus cath, gēr chlāon cēille,
do fhlaith Temhra tāoibhrēidhe. - Tarla mé aghaid i n-acchaid
isin cath is flaith Feabhail:
sāithim sleigh, is nīr chiall chruind,
i Māol sogrādhach Sechluinn. - Do impō an āitheheis nār mīn,
