Cha 'n f haighear clamh na maoifeach.
Ann 'n coire no air aonach,
Le mèilich uan is chaorach,
Cha 'n f heud iad do 'n f hridh :
Na fealgairean ga 'n caoineadh,
Bu mhinic a ghearr gaoth air
Buidheann nan cas caola,
'S a dh' aom iad gun chlì,

Tha cleachdan is deagh ghnàthan,
Bha aig na iinnibh dli f hag ilnn,
Air dol an aghaidh nadair,
Ge nàr e re inns' :
Ge d' thig a ghearr gu dàna,
A dli-itheadh an cuid càìLorr,
Mu chuirear i gu bàs leo,
Na h-armuinn thig fò chìs.
Gur e a bhuair na Frangaich,
Gu teachd a nHÌl na 'r n-ionnfuidh,
*S gu finnt chuir gu teanndachd,
'S an àm fo le 'n llrì,
'O n chual iad gu 'm bu chaoiraich,
Bha n 'itr ar cu.id daoine,

Nach glaoidheadh iad an t-ihith.
