Lyrics:

Ta bean in E/irinn a bhronnfadh se/ad dom is mo sha/ith le n-o/l
Is ta/ bean in E/irinn is ba bhinne le/i mo ra/fla ceoil
Na/ seinm the/ad; ata/ bean in e/irinn is ni/orbh fhearr le/i beo
Mise ag le/imnigh no/ leagtha i gcre/ is mo tharr faoi fho/d

Ta/ bean in E/irinn a bheadh ag e/ad liom mur' bhfaighfinn ach po/g
o/ bhean ar aonach, nach ait an sce/ala, is mo dha/imh fe/in leo;
Ta/ bean ab fhearr liom na/ cath is ce/ad dhi/obh nach bhfagham go deo
Is ta/ caili/n spe/iriu/il ag fear gan Bhe/arla, dubhghra/nna cro/in.

Ta/ bean a de/arfadh da/ siulfainn le/i go bhfaighinn an t-o/r,
Is ta/ bean 'na le/ine is is fearr a me/in na/ na ta/inte bo/
Le bean a bhuairfeadh Baile an Mhaoir is cla/r Thi/r Eoghain,
Is ni/ fheicim leigheas ar mo ghalar fe/in ach scaird a dh'o/l
