DRUIM FÍNGIN II

  1. Rop h-é-seo Druim n-Elgga n-oll
    co Fingin fergga fráech-dond:
    Rothniam sund a sídib slóg
    taithiged Fingin find-mór.
  2. Tictis sund cecha samna
    ind rigan 's in rig-damna:
    scartais ria slóg co soilse,
    co cantais ceól con bith toirse.
  3. Ba derb la mac Luchta ille,
    feib docuchta celmuine,
    atberad tria chabra a cind
    co ngebad Banba m-barr-fhind.
  4. Sed noráided Rothníam rán
    nodailfed cu Fotla Fáil:
    ba siat a samla iar saine
    buada Banba barr-glaine.

    5. p.338

  5. Is é sein ba sonshnaidm slecht
    o fail in comainm comchert,
    Druim Fingin co ngarb-shin gle
    issind amsir ir-raibe.
  6. Sund rognid in graibre gel
    airne i n-deochaid Fingen:
    Druim n-Elgga cen elgnus ngle
    dosail senchas dia rabe. R.
