Ruaigidh e 'n taiblise gu liiatli ; —
Beannaclid a's buaidh leat an tràsa !" *

Bliaird Chumliail ; 's nacli b' e àbhaist
Laoich do thiglie riamli gii'm fagadli
lad an caraid an uair gabhaidh."
Dh' aitlmicli Gealchas gutli an Deirg ;
85 'S mar bu ghnàtli leis air an leirg,
Rinn e miolaran, 's thug leum gliabhaidh,
Le mbr aoibhneas gliios iia tragliad.
Mar sliaiglieid o ghlacaibh an iugliair,
Bha chasan a' siubhal nam barra-thonn ;
90 'S b' aite leis na mac na h-eilde
Dearg, 's e lenm ri uchd a bhraghad.
'S chunnacas sodan na deise
Le solus bristeacli nan reultan,
Mac-samliuil coinneamli nan cairdean,
95 An tra thàrlas doibli an cèin-thii'.
'S ni 'm bu cliuimlme le Dearg ar loingeas,
Aig ro-mlieud aighir 's a sholais ;
Mur tugadh Gealchas air làimh e
Ghios na tràghad siar 'n ar comhdhail.

An cuan salach nan garbh-thonn ] [eadh
'S ioghnadh do thèarnadh o'n bhas,
A shluig le ganraich a suas thu ! "
