treas la de'n Mhàirt, anns a' bhliadhna

Cha surd cadail 1065
An rùn-s' air m'aigne,
Mo shùil frasach
Gun siird macnais
'S a' chiiirt a chleachd mi
Sgeul ùr ait ri eisdeachd. 1070
Is trom an cudthrom so dhrùidh,
Dh'fhàg mo chuislein gun lùth,
Is trie snighe mo shùl
A' tuiteam gu dlijth,
Chain mi iuchair mo chùil: 1075
An cuideachd luchd-ciuil cha teid mi.
Mo neart 's mo threoir
Fo thasgaidh bhòrd,
Sàr mhac Mhic Leoid
Nam brataeh sròil, 1080
Bu phailt mu'n or,
Bu bhinn caismeachd sgeoil
Aig luchd-astair is ceoil na h-Eireann.
Co neach d'an eòl
Fear t' fhasain beò 1085
Am blasdachd beoil
Is am maise neoil,
An gaisge gleois
An ceart 's an coir,
Gun airceas no sgleò fèile? 1090
