- Corrach do chodlas a-réir,
codladh do ba docair dhúinn;
ag so an chrithear bhuan nách báidh,
gual an ghráidh ag ficheadh fúinn. - Mo chodladh fá codladh saobh;
tre chodladh corrach do-chiam
bean bhruit uaine, is sionn ar suan,
stuagh fhionn do ba nuaidhe niamh. - Trem chadladh do conncas dúinn
(níor chomhtha rer ghabhtha gráin)
stuagh mhéirsheang fá meadh do rígh,
bean 'gá mbím i ngéibheann gráidh. - Ní hionann grádh oile is í,
mo thoil-se mar tá don mhnaoi,
(truagh gan mo ghrádh dhuid, a Dhé!)
mé 'gom ghuid ar lár an laoi. - Doigh sheirce dom tholladh tríom;
ar chodladh ní leigthear luadh;
ón ghruaidhghil is tinn atám;
buaidhridh a grádh sinn dár suan. - Ar gcur mh'aignidh 'na gruaidh ghil,
suan ar ar n-aire ní fhuil;
toirrcheas na heirce is í soin;
doigh sheirce trem chlí do chuir. p.94 - Rug m'aire d'imirt is d'ól
an ainnir is gile gruadh;
rug a tromghrádh sinn dár seól;
ceól mar orghán linn a luadh. - Searc mná ón dodholta dhúinn,
lán robharta ag teacht i dtír;
mar badh moir i gcomhdháil chuain
do chuaidh doigh a tromghráidh trínn. - An tol-sain (gá tine is teó?)
im chridhe 'na cosair chró,
'gom shíorghoin as-toigh a-tá;
toil mná gá míorbhail is mó? - 'Na lán mara do mhoigh tríom
an toil nách lamhar do luadh;
cosg na toile is ar gan fál,
lán do ghabh san chroidhe cuan. - Ní aithnim umha tar ór,
ní aithnim uisge tar fíon;
mo chroidhe gonta dá grádh,
lán moire ara docra díon. - Nó go bhféachar a folt fann
agus réalta na rosg gcorr,
ní faghar glóir acht glóir ghearr;
dóigh leam gur cadhan an chorr.
