- A bhean lán do stuaim,
cuinnibh uaim do lámh;
ní fear gníomha sinn,
cé taoi tinn dár ngrádh. - Féach ar liath dom fholt,
féach mo chorp gan lúth,
féach ar thraoch dom fhuil, -
créad re bhfuil do thnúth? - Ná saoil mé go saobh,
arís ná claon do cheann;
bíodh ar ngrádh gan ghníomh
go bráth, a shíodh sheang. - Druid do bhéal óm bhéal, -
doiligh an sgéal do chor;
ná bíom cneas re cneas,
tig ón dteas an tol. p.134 - Do chúl craobhach cas,
do rosg glas mar dhrúcht,
do chíoch chruinngheal bhláith,
thairngeas mian gach súl. - Gach gníomh acht gníomh cuirp,
is luighe id chuilt shuain,
do-dhéanainn tred ghrádh,
a bhean lán do stuaim. - A fhinnebhean tséimh shéaghanta shárchaoin tsuairc
Na muirearfholt réig raonfholtach fá a ndíol gcuach,
Is iongna an ghné thaomanach fhásaíos uait;
Cé duilig an sgéal, tréig me agus tág dhíom suas. - Do-bhirim-se fém bhréithir, dá mbáití an slua
San tuile do léig Vénus 'na táclaí anuas,
A bhurraiceach bhé mhéarlag na mbánchíoch gcruaig,
Is tusa mar aon chéidbhean do fágfaí im chuan.
