The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

S a Chití Ní Eadhra

Nach náir mar a d'imigh tú uaim

'S an chroí atá 'mo lár

Gur fhág tú chomh dubh leis an ghual

Ní iarrfainn aon spás ar an Ard Rí

'Sna Flaitheas anuas

Ach cead troda leis an bhás

Gach lá sular imigh tú uaim

'S tá dhá cheann an tí

'Na luí 'tá'n lár gan dóigh

Ó d'imigh an bhean chaoin

Faraor, a bhí soineanta cóir

Níor fhan sí agam ach trí ráithe

Amháin bhí ba ghiorra ná an uair

Óch nach é mo léan géar

Gur fágadh í sínte san uaigh

Is a Chití, mo mhian

Nach aoibhinn duitse bheith ar lár

Atá i bhFlaitheas na Naomh

'Bhfuil na mílte anam gan smál

Is chan mar a bímse 'tá guí

'S ag osnaí gach tráth

Nó i dTalamh na Naomh

Atá rogha mo charaid thar mhná
