| Dhiult am bodach fodar dhomh |
The old man refused me straw |
| 'S gun dhiult am bodach feur dhomh |
The old man refused me hay |
| Dhiult am bodach fodar dhomh |
The old man refused me straw |
| Chuirinn fo mo shliosaid |
To put under my thigh |
| Dhiult am bodach fodar dhomh |
The old man refused me straw |
| 'S gun dhiult am bodach feur dhomh |
The old man refused me hay |
| Dhiult am bodach fodar dhomh |
The old man refused me straw |
| Chuirinn fo mo shliosaid |
To put under my thigh |

The ragged, sallow old man |
| A's an t-sabhail feur dhomh |
Refused me hay in the barn |
