[ 20 ]
’S ioma neach a theid air ghaisge,
Tha fior lag ’na dhochas,
Gus a’ noclidar standard brat-dhearg,
An High cheart-s’ tha oirnne,
Ge do bhiodh e ’na fhior ghealtair.
Gur cruaidli rag gu bhroig e,
Ceart cho gairge ris an lasair,
A losgadh as-bbuain eorna.
Mboir’ is sgairleil, foirmeil, bagant,
Gaeil gbasda, cbrodha;
Gacb aon bbratach slos do’n bbaiteal
Le ’n gruaidh laisde rosg-dearg;
lad gun fhiamh, gun fbeall, gun ghaiseadh;
Riogbail, beachd-bhorb, proiseil;
Gu no-lapach ri rinn gaisge,
Spainntich gblas ’nan ddrnabb.
’S binn linn plapraich nam breid bratacb,
Srannraich bras ri mor-ghaoitb,
An glacaibh gaisgeich nan ceum staideil.
Is stuirteil, sgairteil, mbison;
’S lann ghorm sgaiteach, do sbar-shlacan
Geur gu sracadb shron’ aige.
Air bac cruacbain an fhir bhrataich,
Gu cuir tais’ air fogradh.
’S furbaidh tailceant, ’s cumpa pearsa,
Treun-laocb spraiceil, ddid-gbeal;
Piob d’ a spalpadh suas ’na achlais,
Mhosglas lasan gleois duinn;
Caismeachd bhras bhinn, bhrodadb aignidh,
Gu dian chasgairt sloigb leis ;
Cbuireadh torman a port baisgeil,
Spioraid bbras ’n-ar poraibh.
