Lyrics
Báidín Fheilimí dâ019imigh go Gabhla,
Báidín Fheilimí is Feilimí ann.
Báidín Fheilimí dâ019imigh go Gabhla,
Báidín Fheilimí is Feilimí ann.

(Chorus)

Báidín bídeach, báidín beosach,
Báidín bóidheach, báidín Fheilimí
Báidín díreach, báidín deontach
Báidín Fheilimí is Feilimí ann.

Báidín Fheilimí dâ019imigh go Toraí,
Báidín Fheilimí is Feilimí ann.
Báidín Fheilimí dâ019imigh go Toraí,
Báidín Fheilimí is Feilimí ann.

Chorus

Báidín Fheilimí briseadh i dToraí,
Báidín Fheilimí is Feilimí ann.
Báidín Fheilimí briseadh i dToraí,
Báidín Fheilimí is Feilimí ann.

Chorus

Báidín Fheilimí briseadh i dToraí,
Báidín Fheilimí is Feilimí ann.
Báidín Fheilimí briseadh i dToraí,
Éisc ar bord agus Feilimí ann.
