170 ORAIN
Clia b' ioglinadli mi bhi 'n tòir ort,
'S do ghruaidhean mar na rbsan;
Do chneas mar chanach lòintean,
'S mar ite 'n eòin do mhalaidhean.
An giUe dubh, etc.
'S ann an raoir a rinn mi bruadar
Am chadal air a' chluasaig —
'S a' mhadainn, 'n uair a ghluais mi,
Gu 'm b' fhada bhuam an gille dubh.
An gille dubh, etc.
Gur mise th' air mo lionadh,
'Bhi cuimhneach air do bhriathran;
Gu 'm b' fhearr nach fhacas riabh thu,
Ma thug thu 'm bliadhna 'n car asam.
An gille dubh, etc.
Ma rinn thu mise 'thrèigsinn
Le comhairle luchd-brèige,
Cha 'n fhiosrach mi fo 'n ghrèin
Ciod am feum a th' anns an leannanachd.
An gille dubh, etc.
Ma rinn thu mise 'thrèigsinn
Le comhairle luchd-brèige,
Mo mhile beannachd fèin leat
Blio 'n 's e gu 'm b' f heudar dealachadh.
An gille dubh, etc.
ORAN GAOIL.
Naoh g>)rach mi gad' chaoineadh, 'snach caoineadh tu mi,
'S ro ghnrach thug mi gaol dhuit. 's gu'm faod thu bhi gam' dhìth;
Ma 's e lugh'd mo stòrais, a dh' fhàg do dheòin ga m' dhith,
O 's fheudar dhomh bhi beò, ged nach pòsadh tu mì.
