Craobh an abhill
Ga sior-sgathadh
'Sios gun athadh
Le fior chaitheamh foirneirt ;
Fo mhein mheirleach
Nach seimh ceirdean
Gun daimh cairdis ;
Saobhidh Dhatain 's Chora ;
'Bha riamh bristeach
Gun sion 'ghibhtean
Ach ciall gliocis ;
B'e 'n ceann-i-//?// do m' sheors' iad,
'S e baigh Ailain
Air gradh carid
'S a bhas ealamh
'Dh 'f hag fas ar fearann mor duinn.
Nach beirt fhollais
An staid shoilleir s'
A ghrad thoinneamh
'N ar ceart choinnimh oimne.
Bhuain sinn fein i
Le uaisle eifeachd,
'S le cruas meine ;
Bhuail i geur 's an t-sroin sinn.
Ged tha ar fearann
An drasd fo'r gearradh,
Cha n-e bhur ceannas
Bhuin dhinn le lannibh coir'e.
Bu bhuan strith dhuinn
Ri sluagh rioghachd ;
Cha tuath chrion
A f huair dhinn striochdadh comhla.
