Sasana, 13ú Aois

Mirie it is Mirie it is while sumer y-last With fugheles son Oc nu neheth windes blast And weder strong. Ei, ei, what this nicht is long! And ich with wel michel wrong Soregh and murne and fast.

Meidhreach atá Meidhreach atá, sé an samhradh é Is ceol binn-éan; Ach seo chugainn an ghaoth ghéar Is gálaí tréan’. Aidhe, aidhe, fad’ an oíche’, mo léan! Seo mé is m’anamsa i bpéin Buartha gan greim i mo bhéal.
