218 ORAIN
Na Scots Greys air tigh'nn à Eiriun,
Sàbhailte gun bheud, gun mhilleadh.
Chluinn mi, &c.
An Captain Caimbeul le 'chomannda,
De na bh' ann 's e b' annsa leinne.
Chluinn mi, &c.
O na'n greasadh Righ na grèin' thu
Gu d' thir fèin gu 'm b' èibhinn leinn' e !
Chluinn mi, &c,
Gu tigh mòr nan tuireid àrda,
'S e 'dol fàs gun àird' air inneal.
Chluinn mi, &c.
Aii tigh a thog dhuit Flath na fèille;
'S ioma sùil 'bha deurach uime.
Chluinn mi, &c.
Sliochd lain bhig 'ic-Iain-'ic-Dhòmhuill,
G' an robh còirichean Bhràigh-Ghlinne.
Chluinn mi, &c.
FAILTE DO 'N EILEAN SGIATHANACH.
Le Niall Mac-Leoid.
O, failt air do stùcan,
Do choireachan ùdlaidh,
Do bheanntainnean sùghor
Far an siubhladh am meann !
Tha 'n geamhradh le 'dhùbhlachd
Mu na meallaibh a' dùnadh,
'S gach doire le 'bhùii-ean,
Air a rusgadh gu bonn.
