Úr-Chnoc Chéin Mhic Cáinte

A phlúr na maighdean is úire gné,
Fuair clú le scéimh ón Ádhamhchlainn,
A chúl na bpéarla, a rún na héigse,
'Dhúbhlas féile 's fáilte;
A ghnúis mar ghréin le dúsach a' lae,
A mhúchfadh léan le gáire,
'Sé mo chumha gan mé 's tú, a shiúr, linn féin,
Sa dún sin Chéin Mhic Cáinte.

Táim brúite i bpéin, gan suan, gan néal
De do chumha, a ghéag is áille;
'S gur tú mo roghain i gcúigibh Éireann
A' chúis nach séanaim ás de;
Dá siúlfá, a réalt gan smúid, liom féin,
Ba súgach saor ár sláinte
Gheofá plúr is méad is cnuasach craobh
Sa dún sin Chéin Mhic Cáinte.

A chiúin-bhean tséimh na gcuachann péarlach,
Gluais liom féin ar ball beag,
Nuair bheas uaisle is cléir is tuataí i néal
In a suan faoi éadaí bána;
Ó thuaidh go mbéam i bhfad uafa araon
Teacht nua-chruth gréine amárach
Gan duais linn féin in uaigneas aerach
San uaimh sin Chéin Mhic Cáinte.
