IAN a chuir Moir air a Mac,
Sian romh mharbhadh, sian romh lot,
Sian eadar cioch agiis glun,
Sian eadar glun agus lore,
Sian nan tri sian,
Sian nan coig sian,
Sian nan seachd sian,
Eadar barr do chinn
Agus bonn do chos.
Sian nan seachd paidir, a h-aon,
Sian nan seachd paidir, a dha,
Sian nan seachd paidir, a tri,
Sian nan seachd paidir, a ceithir,
Sian nan seachd paidir, a coig,
Sian nan seachd paidir, a sia,
Sian nan seachd paidir, a seachd
Ort a nis.
Bho chlaban do bhathas,
Gu dathas do bhonn,
Ga d' chuniail o d' chul,
Ga d' chumhn o t' aghaidh.
Clogad slainne mu d' cheann,
Cearcul comhnant mu d' bhraigh,
Uchd-eididh an t-sagairt mu d' bhrollach,
Ga d' dhion an cogadh 's an comhrag nan namh.
Ma's ruaig dhuit, oig, o thaobh do chuil,
Buaidh na h-Oigh ga do chomhnadh dluth,
Sear no siar, siar no sear,
Tuath no deas, deas no tuath.
