p.58

Beloved Lord, pity me

1. A Choimdiu baíd,
   a Rí na ríg,
   a Athair inmain,
   airchis dím.
2. Ná rucam inn-onn
   nach pecad linn,
   ná fagbam tall
   péin ar ar cinn.
3. Treblait nor-glana
   nos-tabair dún,
   a Meic Dé bí,
   a Rí na rún.
4. Treblait chorrach, —
   is maith in maín, —
   nos-coimsig dún,
   a Choimdiu baíd.
5. Ní ragba ar n-eill
   deman dub doim!
   I maig, i taig,
   non-gaib fot choim.
