Leannáin fileadh síol Suibhne
treoin nach tráigh le cianchuimhne
caor shlóigh ren doiligh deabhaidh,
róimh an oinigh d'oileamhain.
Lóchrainn oinigh Éireann Cuinn,
sliocht an Athlamháin áluinn,
an táin ó Thulaigh na n-Art,
curaidh gan ghráin re nguasocht.
Ní chlaochlóidh cuing a n-oinigh
s iad don éigse as fhóiridhin
ioldánaigh gan oil 'n-a gceann
le goimh iombádhaidh Éireann.
