AiB FoNN — " Oran an Reiseamaid Dhuth."
Air Di-mairt dhomh 'n Dun-eidin,
Bha m* intinn mi-eibhinn,
Le beurla 'ga h-eisdeachd,
Leam fein i cha b' fhiu :
'S mi falbh air na sraidean,
Gun ghean no gun ghaìre,
Gun storas gun chairdean,
'S mi craiteach 'us ciuirt,
B' e 'm ealainn 'san trath sin,
Bhi falbh anns gach aite,
Le leabharaichean dain,
'Cuir mo thalant am mòid ;
'S mo dhochas gu laidir,
An gaisgich na'n ard-bheann,
Gu'm feuchadh iad cairdeas.
Do Bhard 's do fhear du'ch'.
Cho maith 'sa bha m' earbsa,
Mar sin gu'n do dhearbh dhomh.
Fir chridh' glan na'n garbh-chrioch
A dhearbh bhi na'n seoid
