MEASGRA DÁNTA
Ní teirce uisge ná fíon
san bhaile bhíos gan chuan long ;
ar talmhain dá siubhladh súd^
ní badh moiUe cú ná cqrr. * Un^»^.
Ní hiondulta i luing gan lón ;
ionann díbh an t-ór 's a luach ;
itear arán ar bórd Gall ;
feirrde crann ar a mbí cnuas.
Ag pápa dá raibh san Róimh
do bhí saidhbhreas óir, más fíor ;
innsim so dá gach neach, —
feirrde teach ar a mbí díon.
25 Annamh itear muc gan dódh ;
is minic fear mór go meirbh ;
gach fear dá léighfe mo dhán
ní bhfuighe bás do bhreith leinbh 1
Is tearc duine théid ón bhás,
30 innsim sin do chách os aird ;
an uair do mhair Fionn na bhfian
do bhíodh a shealg ar Sliabh Mairg.

ar an Éirne atá Eas Ruaidh. ^ r^ % ^*"*^ '^
