Aoibhneas na gCuanTrath smuainiom ar fád uaim siar i an chruachBion mo chroidhe stigh ga loit agus Maigreadh fa ghruaimNil na duoine so mar chleachtinar uoibheaimhuil na suaircAch mar ioniaighe dho ghlar dair a sniomhthaigh la tuaigh.Céad slán don teach ud ann a mbiainn uairAr mor thrathuibh mhór fhada laimh leis an gcruaichBheadh na ceoltaighe binn o fhlaithis gabhrul chughain a nuarAgus na néalta cur niela o dheas and o thuaighAcht da tagaidh an teas and go laibhearadh an chuachDo thriallainnse ar mair and dheanainn mo chuairtMhuna be an umhlaigheacht sa gheallmhuint thugas fein don ourdNi threigin fein Muruisg no uoibhnior na gcuan.Nil sleibhte nil cuiraig nil mointe breagh fruoichNil mainseacha cnuic na aimhneacha fuiNachar shiubhal me gan tuirse a neoinibh gach lueSuil go bfeichin a cuach agus do sharaigh si meNi feidir a ceanach sni diolta i an stuaimMna Eire ni ghlacainn agus i bheith uaimMar einin beag o fhlaitios chimhse fein an chuachSgub a grian a tramhraigh thog mo cruoibhin big uaim.
