Cagaran laghach thu, cagaran caomh thii,
Cagaran odliar, na cluinneam do cbaoine ;
Goididh e gobhair 'us goididh e caoiricli,
Goididh e sithionn o fhireach an aonaicli.
Dean an cadalan 's dtiin do shiiilean,
Dean an cadalan beag 'na mo sgiirdaicb ;
Rinn thu an cadalan 's dUiiin do shiiilean,
Rinn thu an cadalan, slàn gu'n dtiisg tlm !
Thuit e 'na chadalan thuit e 'na sbuainean ;
Cairisidh ainglean gu cairdeil mu'n ciiairt da;
Ckiiimidh e'n guthan a cagar 'na ehbiasan,
'S bithidh fiamh-ghàire air grkdban 'na bbruadar !
LuUaliy, little one, bonnie wee baby,
He 'U be a hero and fight for us maybe ;
Cattle and horses and sheep will his prey be:
None will be bolder or braver than baby.
Softly and silently eyelids are closing ;
Dearest wee jewel, so gently he 's dosing;
Softly he 's resting by slumber o'ertaken ;
Soundly he 's sleeping and sweetly he '11 waken.
Placidly, peacefully, slumber has bo\uid him;
Angels are lovingly watching around him —
Beautiful spirits, his sorrow beguiling.
Sweetly they whisper, and baliy is smiling !
The three first verses of the Gaelic ai'e relics of an old Locliaber liUhiby.
