VIII.
TUIEEADH.
Dh' iadh ceo nan stùc mu aodann Cliiiilinn,
Is sheinn a" bhean-shith a tonnan niulaid,
Tha sùilean gorni, ciùin, san Dun a' sileadh,
Bho 'n thriall thu uainn 's nach till tliu tuilleadh.
Cha till, cha till, cha till Mac-Cioiimein,
An cogadh no sith cha till e tuilleadh.
Le h-airgead no ni cha till Mac-Cniimein.
Cha till gu. bràth gu La na Ci-uinne.
Tha osag nam beann gn fann ag inieachd,
Gach sruthan "s gach allt gn mail le bruthach ;
Tha ealta nan speur feadh ghèugan dubhach,
A' caoidh gun d' fhalbh 's nach till thu tuilleadh.
Tlia 'n fhairge fa-dheòidli làn bròin is mulaid,
Tha 'm bàta fo sheòl, ach dliiiilt i siubhal,
Tha gàrthaich nan tonn le fuaim neo-shnbhach,
Ag ràdh gim d' fhalbh 's nach till thu tuilleadh.
Cha chluinnear do cheòl san Dim mu fheasgar,
'S mac-talla nam mvir le miiim ga 'fhreagau-t,
Gach fleasgach is oigh gun cheòl, giui bheadradh,
Bho'n thriall thu uainn 's nach till thu tuilleadh.
