- Och! och! a Mhuire bhúidh,
a Bhuime Dé,
tugas grádh m'anma do mhnaoi
ler marbhadh mé. - Atá an toil, a Mhuire mhór,
'na tuile thréin;
do mharbh sin do láthair mé,
a Mháthair Dé. - Tugas grádh m'anma do mhnaoi,
ach! a Dhé,
's ní ráinig liom a innsin dí
gur milleadh mé. - Grádh dá geilchígh is gile gné,
mar lile ar lí,
's dá folt dualach druimneach dlúth
is ualach dí. - Grádh dá gealghnúis chriostail mar rós,
nár chiontaigh re haon,
's dá dhá gealghlaic leabhra lúith
ler mealladh mé. p.39 - Rug a haolchorp sleamhain slán
mo mheabhair uaim;
milseacht a gotha 's a glóir,
mé im othar uaidh. - Atáim 'na diaidh, ochán, och!
im bhochtán bhocht;
truagh gan an sluagh-sa ar mo leacht
ag cruachadh cloch. - Truagh gan bráithre ag mianán orm
re siansán salm,
ó tharla mé, a Mhuire mheirbh,
im dhuine mharbh. - Amhrán a béil, bile mar rós,
milis mar thúis,
do chuir mé ar buile báis, —
cá cruinne cúis? - A ógh ler cheanglas mo chruth,
do cheanglais mo chorp;
féach do réir chéille agus chirt
ar n-éiric ort. - Fóir mé, ós féidir leat,
a ghéag gan locht;
fóir mé le comhrádh do chuirp,
ochán, och!
