LAOIDH CHLANN UISNE
A Chlann Uisne nan each geala
Is sibh an tir nam fear fuileach,
Gu de e do bhi air 'ur n-eachaibh ?
Na 'n cion-fath a ta 'g 'ur cumail ?
Ta 'g 'ur cumail fada bhuainn,
'S gur ann leibh a chuirteadh an ruaig,
Do lannan bagairt 'ur namhaid,
Agus amhluadh anns a chumasg.
Ach chuireadh leibh 'ur long a mach
A chaitheadh a chuain gu h-eolach,
Bha Naos bu treise 'g a seoladh,
Agus Aille, maise nan ogan.
Bha Ardan bu deise 'g a stiuireadh,
Air freasdal dithist bhrathar iulmhor —
Tha ghaoth, gun eismeil ri sgeimh
A gleachd ri trillse grinne, reidh.
