Tá ba agam ar shliabh
'S nil duine 'gam na ndiadh
Ach mé do mo bhuaidhreadh leofa
Bíodh idir mise is Dia
Má's orthu 'tá mo thriall
Is Bhain siad mo chiall go mór uaim
Refrão (Depois de cada verso):
'Sí Moll Dubh a' Ghleanna í
'Sí Moll Dubh an Earraigh í
'Sí Moll Dubh is deirge ná'n rósa
'S dá bhfaighinnse féin mo roghainn
De mhná óga deasa 'n domhain
'Sí Moll Dubh a' Ghleanna ab fhearr liom
Mise bheith gan mhaoi
Feasta choíche ní bhim
Is Moll dubh bheith i dtús a h-óige
Och, is fann guth an éin
A labhras leis féin
Ar thulaigh nó ar thaobh na monadh
Is ag Moll dubh a' ghleanna
Tá mo chroí-se i dtaiscí
'S í nach bhfuair guth na náire
Is go ceillí, múinte, cneasta
A dúirt sí liom ar maidin
"Ó imigh uaim 's nach pill go brách orm"
Níl'n óganach geanúil
Ó Bhaile Átha Cliath go Gaillimh
Is timpeall go h-Umhaill Uí Mháinnle
Nach bhfuil a dtriall ulig 'na ghleanna
Ar eacraidh slime sleamhainne
I ndúil leis an bhean dubh a b 'aille
