O 'm beil gacb mathas a' brùchdadb. —
Smaoineacbadb trie air an Trianaid,
Gloir a tboirt do Dbia le dùracbd ;
Gun fbios mu-n tig orm an latha,
Nach teid mo tbarruing gu cùnntas.
An cùnntas sin a tb' orm ri 'sbireadli,
(Ma thig a nise maor na h-ùrach,)
'S eagal leam gur b-aobhar giorraig,
Cbo neo-tbric 's a thug mi sùil air.

\S truagb mar 'cbuir mi seacbad m' liinc ;
Db' at iad an airde cbo fada,
'S gur mor an sac a bbi 'g an giiilan.
