| Lyrics : | English Translation : |
| An raibh tú ar an gcarraig? | Were you on the rock? |
| An raibh tú ar an gcarraig? | Were you on the rock? |
| Nó an bhfaca tú féin mo ghrá? | Or did you yourself see my love? |
| Nó an bhfaca tú gile agus finne | Or did you see the brightness, the fairness |
| Agus scéimh na mná? | Or the beauty of the woman? |
| Nó an bhfaca tú an t-úll | Or did you see the finest apple |
| Ba chumhra a's ba mhilse bláth? | That came from the healthiest flower? |
| Nó an bhfaca tú mo vailintín? | Did you see my valentine? |
| Nó a' bhfuil sí dá cloí mar 'táim? | Is she being persecuted as they are saying? |
| Do bhíos ag an gcarraig | I was on the rock |
| A's do chonaic mé féin do ghrá | And I did see your love |
| Do chonaic mé gile agus finne | And I saw the brightness, the fairness |
| Agus scéimh na mná | And the beauty of the woman |
| Do chonaic mé an t-úll | And I did see the finest apple |
| Ba chumhra a's ba mhilse bláth | That came from the healthiest flower |
| A's do chonaic mé do vailintín | And I saw your valentine |
| Agus níl sí dá cloí mar táir | She is being persecuted as they are saying |
