1. 1] Atá grádh nách admhaim oirn,
   2] grádh mná nách abraim a hainm,
   3] don troigh ghealúir, don mhín mheirbh
   4] don deilbh shídh, don mhearshúil mhairbh.
2. 5] Eala mhálla go néimh naoi
   6] do bhláth bhréige an bheatha cé,
   7] corp seang is soineanta lí,
   8] doimheallta í, is do mheall mé.
3. 9] Ní truaighe, ní truime páis
   10] mar smuainim uirre tre fhís;
   11] uch! mon-uar sinn bocht dá héis,
   12] corp mar ghéis is gruadh mar ghrís.
4. 13] Gnúis déadbhán is dile liom,
   14] mo chéadghrádh cridhe im chom,
   15] rosg glas gan cháidhe 'na chionn,
   16] is fionn bráighe, bas is bonn.
5. 17] Ionmhain tagra milis mall
   18] cantar san inis is fhearr;
   19] ionmhain leaba chíoghbhán chorr,
   20] míonchlár trom (is) seada seang.
6. 21] Ríoghan ghrianda iomshlán óg,
   22] biad-sa dá hiomrádh go héag,
   23] cúl fionnbhuidhe, folt na lúb,
   24] a locht súd siobhlaighe a séad.
