Mo mhíle slán leat, a Éire bhocht nar dheas é an tEarrach fhéin 
Níl an chaint ar obair bhossanaí ná rud ar bith mar é
Ó seal ag baint na feamainne, ag cur fhataí is ag baint fhéir 
Níl fear ar bith dhá bhoichte acu nach raibh feilm aige dhó féin  

Ó tá caitheamh is cáin ar Éire bhocht a cheapfainn féin n ár chóir
Tá an fear ag baint na bhfataí ann, tá an bhean ag bleáint na bó 
Ní hé sin féin do Mheiriceá, déan obair nó lig dhó
Ach má shaothraíonn bean an dollar ann, tá an fear amuigh dhá ól
 
Muise, an cuimhneach libh a dheartháireachaí, lá ar fhága mé an Trá Bháin 
Ní bhfuair mé an té a chuir an chomhairle orm, ná a dúirt liom fanacht ann 
Níl deartháir agam, níl deirfúir agam is níl mo mháthair beo
Ach m'athair atá lag lúbach, a Dhia cé'n t-ionadh dhó  

Muise, báthadh Tom is Peadar orm, bhí uaigneas agam ina ndiaidh 
Ó, Micil Bán ba mheasa liom, dá ndeachaigh thrím ariamh  
Ó, deartháir eile a raibh Máirtín air, a báthadh fadó riamh 
Ach scéal cráite an toinn bháite, is í d'fhága mé ina ndiadh  

Ach d'fhága siad an caladh amach ar maidin leas an lá
Is pébí súile a chonaic iad, níor bheannaigh siad a n-ádh 
Bhí an tae, tobac is siúicre acu, tháinig sé don Trá Bháin 
Tháinig na curachaí ar an duirling, is na maidí ar an trá
