| From the net of the crooked town | B |
| Where they grudge us the light of the day | A |

| And what will we hear on the way | A |
| The stir of wings up and down | B |
| In nests where the little birds stay | A |
| Mavourneen we'll go far away | A |
| From the net of the crooked town | B |
| Where they grudge us the light of the day | A |
