Selected bibliography

Bean Torrach, fa Tuar Broide
Mairg mheallas muirn an tsaoghail
A chnuic thoir re taoibh Ealla
A chros thall ar an dtulaigh
A fhir théid i dTír Chonaill
A Ghearóid, déana mo dháil
Beir eolas dúinn, a Dhomhnuill
Do tógbhadh meirge Murchaidh
Fa ngníomhraidh measdar meic ríogh
Fuirigh go fóill, a Éire
Gaois Ailbhe i n-inghin Domhnuill
Iongaibh thú orm, a Iarla
Maith an locht airdríogh óige
Teach carad do-chiu folamh
