116 DAIN AGUS ORAIN.
'N uair chì thu na fir bheaga
Tha cho beadarrach m' an cuairt di,
Nan diùlnaich chalma, smearaìl,
Bheir e spionnadh dha do ghuallainn.
'N uair dh' fhalbhas iad o'n bhaile,
Gur-a math a ni iad cnuasach,
'S 'n uair thilleas iad a' s' t-earrach
Cha bhi sporan falamh, fuar, ac'.
Bidh fear le cleòca sgàrlaid,
'S fear le fàinne nach bi suarach ;
'S their fear, toirt gùn d' a mhàthair,
" So, càirich sin m' an cuairt duit."
'N uair thig i gu aois searbhanta,
N' tè chamlagach is buadh'che,
'N sin cnagaidh tu do mheòirean
Ris a' ffhòrai°f nach toir cluas duit.
'N uair thig crìoch air lagh an fhearainn,
Bidh do sgalagan m' an cuairt duit,
'S bidh Màiri air a goireas,
Falbh le cuinneig gus a' bhuaile.
Bidh ' Smeòraichean ' is ' Mòinneagain,'
'S gach ainm air bò a chualas,
Ga 'n eigheach gus an eadradh,
'S na laoigh-bheaga ruith m' an cuairt daibh
