beag déanach is mo thréad agam á chur ón síon
i lúib na coille craobhaí is nach aerach a bhí mo thriall.
Bhí an chuach is an lon is an chéirseach ar séirse is gach nota fíor
is i mbun is i mbarr gach béarsa go mbeidh Éire aige Cáit Ní Dhuibhir
Is bean rómhór i bpéin mé is mo chéile chuaigh thar toinn
mo chlann go bhfuil i ndaorbhroid go tréithlag is gan preab ina gcroí.
Ach éireiodh clanna Gael agus léimfidh go mear gach claíomh
is gurb é tús agus deireadh mo scéilse go mbeidh Éire fós ag Cáit Ní Dhuibhir.
Obviously not a reel.
There is a YouTube video of the Celtic ensemble playing this tune, and I like the setting much better. I wish I could notate it. Maybe somebody else can. I tried to copy the link here but I couldn’t do it. It really is a beautiful video of this tune.
