O Spè a b'iomsdaich linn,
A's feigh air firichean ard.
Cheibhte aig siol Ailpein nam fiagh dearg^
Leis 'm bu nihiann gach sealg a frith.
Fir mhaiseach, ghasda gun cheilg,
'N am dhol an seijbh an stri.
'S an o na Cinnldhean nach fànn,
A thainig an Oigh a's glain' beus,
Gruaidh chorcair, ague rosg mall,
?vlala chaolj cham, 's cùl readh.
Tha h-aod^in geal mar a chailc,
*S a corp sneachdaidh air dheagh dheilbh,
Maoth leanabh le gibhtean saor.
Air nach facas fraoch gu feirg.
Tha slios mar eala nan sruth,
'S a cruth mar chanach an fheoir,
Cul cleachdaidh air dhreach nan tend;
Na mar aiteal grein an oir.
Bu cheol cadail i gu suain,
'S bu bhuachaill i air do bheus.
