Ach biodh cuimhn' air Sir Eachann,
Thuit le cruaclal 's le tapadh
'N lonarcheitein 'sua chasgradh na sloigh :
Agus fos air Sir Lachinn,
A bha rioghail, ro bheachdail,
Bu mhath giiionih 's bu mhor feachd aig
Montros;
Is air Eachann nan dian chath,
'Rinn a chorp mar sgeith dhidinn
'Choimhead pearsa a righe bho leoin.
Ann san tung tlia Righ Tearlach,
Agus Seumas a bhrathair,
S chan e 'n sliochd no 'n luchd-pairt 'tha
'nan lorg.
'S olc a choir a th' t)ig Uillam
Bho Olaind nan currachd,
Air comhnadh bho dhuine d' ur seors'.
B' fhad o 'cheil' an da larich
'S an robh esan is iadsan,
'S mo bhur caoimh ris a Phap 'tha 'san
Roimh.
Cha b' ann idir d' a fhinnsribh
'Bha sinn 'dearbhadh ar gniomha
Ach do theaghlach nan righrean a dli'
fhalbh.
Gur h-e bhuineadh do dh-Alba
'Chathir rioghail aic earbsa
Ri fear de shliochd Fhearghuis nan corn.
