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.

Is a Chití na gcumann, ná séan mé

Siúil feasta 'gus éalaigh liom

I ngleanntáin coilleadh nó sliabh' amuigh

Nó sealad faoi bhláth na gcrann

Do phósfainn i gan fhios don tsaol thú

'S don tsagart dá mh'fhéidir liom

'S muna bhfaighfear sinn cangailt' in Éirinn

Ó racham araon anonn

Is do thángas an baile seo 'réir

Is bhí se 'gam déanach go leor

Smé ar intinn an margadh a dhéanamh

'S nach scarfainn léi féin go deo

Níor tháinig a Daidí chun réitigh

Cár mhiste domh é na dhóibh?

Bheirim slán is beannacht as mo ghaolta

'S ní chasfaidh mé fhéin go deo

Níor cuireadh romham cuireadh na fáilte

Ó thánas an tsráid seo thíos

On uair a dh'airigh mo ghrá geal

Is go dtugas mo lámh do mhnaoi

Is doigh leo go bhfuil mise pósta

Is dár ndoigh, más doigh, ní fíor

Dar a leabhar seo 'tá thíos i mo phóca

'S ag mealladh ban óg a bhíos
