Do Fhlaithrí Ó Maoil Chonaire Éisd rem egnach, a fhir ghráidh; is tús damh ó Dhia an domhnáin i ndiamhair le dlús guidhe iarraidh ar tús trócuire. Tug an toice re haimsir druim riom san chrích Chonaill-sin; im aghaidh is ionnsa í; liom-sa labhair, a Fhlaithrí. Do choilleas onóir mh'anma 's mo bhuar's mo lucht leanamhna 's mo dhúthchas gidh dál pudhair i glár chlúm-chas Chonchubahair. Fás slios agam re hathaidh d'easbhaidh shíl Chuinn Chéadchathaigh; am slat chroimcheannach re headh i ngoirmtheallach mac Míleadh. A chara—ós dá chasaoid ruibh— Goill dom athchur 's dom arguin rom thug go Labháin tar linn; rug a hanáil óm intinn. Ainm uasal san Eoruip ort, tú airdeasbag Chláir Chonnocht; déana báidh is robháidh rinn; is cáir dot onáir mh'fhaithchill. Ní maith mo dhóigh, a dhearc mhall, díoth toice má tug oram teacht ó chaithÉirne an chlúimh thruim, súil re haithéirghe aguinn. An bláth chuireas an choill di tig a ionnshamhail uirthe; re ndul dúinn go cathmhúr gCuinn súil ris an athchlúmh aguinn. Tig teas iomarcach d'éis reoidh; glanaidh grian i ndiaidh duibhneoil; fásaidh slios ré ar n-a raghuin; gá fios nach é mh'ionnshamhail. Cuirfe as mo chroidhe a chumhga; a-tá iomad th'ealadhna 's do rífhreamha dom reic ribh, a mheic fhíréanna Fhíthil. Maine mac Néill, Niall féin, Eochaidh Muighmheadhón maoithréidh, drong Fuineadhach nar bh'olc n-áigh. 's Muireadhach ort dom fhuráil. Fiacha Sraibhthine, súil ghlas, Cairbre Lifeachair lúthbhras, agus Cormac dom char ort, donnghlac nachar ghabh guasocht. Art Éinfhear, Conn na gcéad gcath, Féilim Reachtmhar rí Teamhrach, is Tuathal dom fhuráil ort, a bhranáin Chruachan Connocht. Biaidh a bhfuil ó Thuathal thiar go hÉireamhón ar éinrian ag labhairt leam ais re hais, a cheann adhairt gach eolais. Dlighe ó chrú Chormaic mheic Airt, 's ód ghairm onóraigh orrdhairc, is ót sheanathair láimh linn báidh ret ealathain inghill. Do sheanathair san aois óig do chuir geall—dar ghar urchóid— fa dhán re hadhbhar eile glár far hadhnadh oirbhire. An uair-sin ó thír do thír do-chuaidh Muirgheas mhac Paidín a-nonn i gceann mo chinidh, drong ór fhearr a fhóiridhin. Tug m'aicme ann sin láimh do láimh le Muirgheas do mhuin roghráidh cuairt cheiníl go Cruachain gCuinn ó thuathaibh Ceiníl Chonuill. Rug mh'aicmei-se—iúl go bhfios— breath san mhórdháil le Muirgheas an uair-sin féin druim ar druim —céim do uaisligh a fhoghluim. Ris an bhfine dá bhfuil sionn mac Paidín oide Éirionn ceangal síor ó soin i-le ag a síol i Moigh Mheidhbhe. Sliocht Eoghain Mhóir Mheic an Bhaird, sliocht Muirghis ón mBúill mbraonaird, fa mhóid gráidh shíordhuidhe ó shoin tar dáimh fhíonMhuighe Fhionntain. A airdeasbaig fhóid Aidhne mar chairt ar ar gconnailbhe —ní cóir blagh do dhul di-se— an i mbun na báidhei-se. A mheic Fhíthil, adhair dhi baidh ar n-aicmeadh rer-oile; buail séala ar mh'annsa as a hucht déana dhamh-sa do dhúthrocht. Ag sin an pháirt 'n-a páirt te cuir a hucht ar dá n-aicme, a ghéag abhla ó Thoigh Dhá Thí, do thoil led labhra, a Fhlaithrí. A mheic Onóra éisd rinn gé táim ann nochan fhuilim; ó theasda mh'ana éisd mh'uch; a chara éisd rem éagnach. Sir síoth dhamh ar dhaonnacht Dé gion go ndearnas a dheighréir rem ré san bheathaidh i-bhus, a Pheadair, éisd rem éagnach. Éisd.
