fuair rí na halbanna, bás. faraor
gan mac ar an tsaoil seo
tháinig fear as an deisceart
rí éamonn a haon
ó, págánach cruálach
throid an slua
uaisle is ísleacht
eatarthu féin
rinne dearmad go choíche
'bpatronach féin
seo finscéal
d'éag an rí
gan mac ar an tsaoil seo
bhí 'n teideal ag éamonn
throid na hóganaigh
daoine is tiarnaí
eatarthu féin
curadh go scithiúil
a sheas i saghas cogaigh
curadh gan anam
curadh gan dóigh
'crochadh tríocha
tríocha gan uaisleacht
agus buachaillí a bhí óg
croí crualach
finscéal beo
d'fháiscigh an mhaorgacht
ó mbriathra na halbanna
sé mbliain a bhí cróga
cróga go leor
íobair an láimh' seo
ró-casta, ró-bhrónach
scairt siad a shaoirse
fear a bhí cróga
croí cróga
