'NUAIR EIRIGHEAS AIR MAIDIN.



Written by Clann Chonchobair from a copy
made by him phonetically from dictation
in his tenth year.



Nuair d'éirgheas air maidin 'san m-baile
'smé a d-túis mo shaoghail,
Chuadhas go Cnoc-grafan mar a m-baintear
an foghmhar le faobhar;
'S nuair shaoileas-sa codladh mar chleachtas
am' dhúithche féin,
Bhí an sgológ 'na sheasamh air maidin 'sdob
árd a ghlaodh.



Mór dhuit a thaisdilligh 's d'fhreagair sé
féin arís
An fada do thángais? do thángas o shráid
Bhláthaídhe, (a)
An fíor gur ó mhaidin do shiubhail tusa an
méid sin slíghe?
'Smo chuid foghmhair-se air lasadh 'sgan fear
agam fós, 'na shuídhe (b)



'Nuair chualaidh an ghasra é, phreabadar
suas 'na suidhe; (b)
Bhí stocaidhe d'á straca a's lasgaidhe sean-
bhróg bhí críon;
Le sgeimhle reatha 's gan bail agam déanadh
aon mhoill,
Do chailleas mo h-ata 's do-thugas lá buaint
am mhaoil.
