Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFEGEHEDEIJKDIJ DELE| I NAMED her twice I named her thrice | A |
| I named her ten times over | B |
| The wind heard and the singing bird | C |
| And the bee in the creamy clover | B |
| Acushla Acushla | D |
| The cushat dove is cooing | E |
| It's little that a man may do | F |
| Whose heart is hot with wooing | E |
| I left the field the harvest yield | G |
| The grain was ripe to falling | E |
| And ran and ran a crazy man | H |
| And I the whole time calling | E |
| 'Acushla Acushla | D |
| The cushat dove is cooing | E |
| When Love is keeping holiday | I |
| What work is worth the doing ' | J |
| Her feet were fleet her pretty feet | K |
| Upon the hill and hollow | D |
| She bade me stay she cried me nay | I |
| And still her eyes said 'Follow ' | J |
| Acushla Acushla | D |
| The cushat dove is cooing | E |
| To capture her was sweet indeed | L |
| Yet sweeter the pursuing | E |
