Mairearad nan Cuireid
Oran a rinn Main nighean Alasdair Ruaidh, is
Mairearad nan cuireid a' togail oirre gun robh i
leatromach.
- Ach, a Mhairearad nan cuireid,
- Cuime a chuir thu orm breug:
Hi riri o hiri o hi o.
— Gun robh leanabh gun bhaisteadh
— Fo aisne mo chlèibh',
-^ Ann an làraich mhic tighearn' 125
.^ Far nach bithinn 's tu fhein.
-^ Cuim' nach innseadh tu an fhirinn
^ Cho cinnteach rium fhein?
^ Cha b'ionann do m'athair
^ Is do t'athair-sa, eisg! 130
^ Cha b'ionann do m' bhràithrean
Is do d' ghàrlaich gun speis.
^ Cha b'ionann do ar tighean
^^ An am laighe do 'n ghrein:
^ Gum faighte an tigh m'athar-s' 13s
^ Sitheann 's cnàimhean an fheidh:
^ Is e gheibhte an tigh t'athar-s'
^ Siigh is cnàimhean an eisg.
^ An am direadh o'n bhaile
^ Is trom 's gur h-annamh mo cheum. 140
Gur a diombach mi 'n chaile
Thog sgannal nam breug;
Dubh iomall na tuatha,
Buinneag shuarach gun spreidh,
