I have most of the lyrics for the Muscraí version of this song, but it's the verse starting "Is cosúil é le hAonghus óg" I'm missing. I think the last two lines are different to the standard version, but then I could be hearing it totally wrong!

That's not it, I wish it was!

I've it figured, they mix two lines of one verse with two lines from another one!
Is cosúil é le hAonghus Óg,
Le Lughaidh mac Chéin na mbéimeann mór,
Le Conchubhar cáidh mhac Náis na nós,
Taoiseach aoibhinn Chraoibhe an cheoil.

Some small differences here:

Is cosmhail é le hAonghus óg,
Le Lughaidh mac Chéin na mbéimeann mór,
Le Cúraoi, ard mac Dáire an óir
Taoiseach Érann tréan ar tóir.
