Am fear bu graist' cho cuirteach dhuinn,
An tuigse gheur a liutha sgeul,
'S a' ghibht a b* f hearr gu 'n cuimseachadh 5
^S tu seud bu lain', tighinn huig gach la,
De 'n t-slig* a b* àilte cuimteachd.
'S lionmhor cridhe a thuit a bhàn,
Mu'a cuairt air la do thiolacaidh,
Bha *g earbsa cinnteach ri do linn
Bhi suight' an inntlnn shior-bheartaich,
Bha ioma ceud dhe t'fhinneadh fein
Ag deanadh feum mar iomhaigh dhiot ;
Ach dhearbh an ieim so dhuinn gu leir,
Nach bheil fudh 'n ghrein ach diomhanas,
Co an duine thug ort barr
Am breith, am pairt, 'san iunnsachadh ;
Na CO an aon a sheasas t'ait
Dhe'n th'air an cradh ga d' iondrain ?
Gach beag, a's mor, gach sean, a's og,
Le gul, a's deoir ga 'n ceannsachadh,
Ge trie le brùn bhi tuisleach oirn,
Gha tig an corr le agn duine de.
