[Verse 1]
Bhuel, Amcibe Fsaibhreas a Cbhí agGam,
Tá sé Amcaite Far mo Ccháirde dGhíl;
Agus Amcibe Fdochar a Crinne mGé,
Dom Amfhéin a Frinne mé an Cdochar sAmin.
Is na Crudai suarach a rinne mé,
Tá siad Gdearmadta gan mé sa chré.
Só Amlíon go Fbarr an Cgloine Gslán;
Oíche Ammhaith Fagus aoibhneas Cdaoibh go Gléir,
Oíche Ammhaith Fagus aoibhneas Cdaoibh go Gléir.
[Verse 2]
Is Amiomaí Fuair i Clár an Glae,
Go raibh Ammé ag Fól agus Cmé ar Gstrae;
Ach Amfuair mé Fcabhair, nuair Ca bhí mé Gthíos,
Agus Amfuair mé Ffáilte Carais Amarís.
Ba Cbhreá liom seans sula a mbíonn mé réidh,
'bheith Gle mo ghrá gheal ar Inniskea;
Só Amlíon go Fbarr an Cgloine Gslán;
Oíche Ammhaith Fagus aoibhneas Cdaoibh go Gléir,
Oíche Ammhaith Fagus aoibhneas Cdaoibh go Gléir.
[Verse 3]
Na Amcairde Fuilig a Cbhí agGam,
Tá siad Ambrónach go Fbhfuil mé ag Cfágáil Gslán;
Is na AmcailínFí, a bhí Ci mo Gchroí,
Bhuel Amtá mé Fliom fhéin is mé C'na luAmí.
Ach tá Cbóthar fada le taisteal ábó,
Agus Gtabharfaidh mé an bóthar sin gan stró,
Só Amlíon go Fbarr an Cgloine Gslán;
Oíche Ammhaith Fagus aoibhneas Cdaoibh go Gléir,
Oíche Ammhaith Fagus aoibhneas Cdaoibh go Gléir.
