82 TIOMNA GHUILL.
C'iiim', a dheoraidh, ghuidh thu dliut fèin
Treise Ghuill 'n a èideadh-stàilinn 1
Tra dhealruich e mar eigh an gath-gi'èine,
610 'S gearr ge h-aoibhinn a dhèarsadh.
Mar neul ruiteach rè an laoich ;
Chi 'n sealgair, 's an oidhch' a' taosgadh.
" 'S àluinn a dhreach mar bhogh' na frois !"
Slieall e, 's cha 'n fhaic e aogas.
515 Luath mar fhìreun an adhair,
'S an ioma-ghaoth 'n a plathadh fo sgiathan,
Shiubhail an dreach àillidh,
'S 'n a àite tha 'n ceathach ciar-dhubh.
Tuille ni'm mairionn do GhoU,
520 Ach mairidh e 'm fonn nan teud ;
Ni h-amhuil a's ceò air an f hrois
Cliù treise nan treun-laoch.
Càiribh, a chlanna nan teud,
Leaba Ghuill 's a dheo-grèine làmh ris,
625 Far am faicear innis o chèin,
A's geugan os àird 'g a sgàileadh.
Fo sgèith na daraig is guirme blàth,
Is luaithe f às 's is buaine dreach,
A bhrùchdas a duilleach air anail na frois,
530 'S an raon m' an cuairt d'i seargie.
A duilleach o iomall na tìre,
Chìtear le eoin an t-samhraidh ;
Is laidhidh gach eun mar a thig
Air bàrraibh na gèige ùrair.*
