NY mraane-seyrey Ballawyllin,
Striew mish y phot cowree,
Ching, ching ayns yn arragh,
Haglym blaaghyn ayns y thourey,
jeeassagh arroo ayns yn ouyr,
Snieu lieen avns y geurey.

THE gentlewomen of Ballawyllin,.
Struggling round the cowrey pot,
Sick, sick in the spring,
Gathering flowers in the summer,
Gleaning corn in the autumn,
Spinning flax in the winter.
