Nuair a gheobhas mé bás na cuirigí laoi fhód mé,
Tabhair go tí 'n leanna mé 'gus cóirigí ar bórd mé,
An áit a mbéidh mé 'g éisteacht le na mugannaí dá mbualadh,
Is gur binne liom naoi n-uaire é na ceol binn na cuaiche -
'gus líontar dúinn an Crúiscín agus bíodh sé lán.
Tá cailín ar an bhaile seo agus tá sí lách aereach,
Tá sí lách geanamhail 'gus loinnir ar a héadán;
Mac-a-samhail chan fhaca mé i mbaile nó i n-áthrach,
Ach an pamhsaí Neillí bhi ar thoin na loing a lathadh
'gus líontar dúinn an Crúiscín agus bíodh sé lán.
An dtiochfaidh tú, nó 'n bhfanfaidh tú, nó 'n dtiocfaidh tú a Dhómhnaill,
An dtiochfaidh tú nó 'n bhfanfaidh tú, nó 'bhfúil dó dhóthan ólta?
Tiocfaidh mé 's ní fhtanfaidh mé, is tá mo dhóthan ólta,
Is beidh an cailín deas agam má glacann sí mo comhairle
'gus líontar dúinn an Crúiscín agus bíodh sé lán.
Is deas a' baile an baile seo, is deas an baile Cnáimhsí,
Is deise an baile an baile seo na baile ar bith 'san áit seo,
Tá siad congar aifrinn ann muilinn agus ceardchan,
'S na mhéanar do 'n mhnaoi óig beadh na cónaí ann ach ráithe
is líontar dúinn an Crúiscín is biódh sé lán.
