80 TIOMXA GHUILL.
MAR CHAOIDH FIONX MAC MORNA.
'S a laoicli feara na Feinne,
480 'N d' fliàg tliu mise leam fèin am aois ?
Tuille nacli cluinn mi d' èigheach,
No farum do sgèith air an raon 1
Nach soillsich tuille do chlaidheamh,
Le 'm faigheamar buaidh na làraich ì
485 Nach marcaich 's an t-sìn do long,
'S nach cluinnear leam fonn do ràmhach ì
Tra thuirleas m' anam an ceò,
Tra dh' aomas neul àir mo chiabh,
Nach ckiinn mi o mhacaibh nam fonn,
490 " Sid air lear long Mhic Morna?"
Fonn nan òighean a's guth nam bàrd
Gu bràth cha 'n èiiich a' d' chòmhdhail ;
Cha 'n f haic na slèibhte do "bhratach ;
Cha chluimiear d' acain no d' òran.
495 Cha 'n 'eil imeachd do chon air an t-sliabh,
Tha iad siar aig d' f hàrdaich, brònach ;
Tha damh na cròic air an fhaiche,
Cha 'n fhiù leo fhaicinn, 's nach beo thu.
Och ! a lù-choin, dh' imich an laoch ;
500 Cha chluinn sibh 's an aonach a ghuth.
An so tha chadal, gun seilg aii' ùigh ;
'S beum-sgèith, a Ghuill, cha dùisg thu !
Ciod e spionnadh an laoich 1
Ged sgaoil e mar dhuilleach an cath,
505 An diugh ge treun air an raon,
Bheir an daol am màireach buaidh air.
