Marbhrann
do Iain Garbh Mac Ghille Chaluim Ratharsaidh
a chaidh a dhith le ainneart mara.
Mo bheud is mo chràdh 285
Mar a dh'eirich da
An fhear ghleusta ghràidh
Bha treun 'san spàirn
Is nach faicear gu bràth an Ratharsaidh.
Bu tù am fear curanta mor 290
Bu mhath cumadh is treoir
O t'uilinn gu d' dhòrn
O d' mhullach gu d' bhròig:
Mhic Mhuire mo leòn
Thu bhith an innis nan ròn is nach faighear thu. 295
Bu til sealgair a' gheoidh,
Làmh gun dearmad gun leòn
Air am bu shuarach an t-òr
Thoirt a bhuannachd a' cheoil,
Is gun d'fhuair thu na's leoir is na chaitheadh tu. 300
Bu tu sealgair an fhèidh
Leis an deargta na bein;
Bhiodh coin earbsach air eill
Aig an Albannach threun;
Càite am faca mi fein 305
Aon duine fo'n ghrein
A dhèanadh riut euchd flathasach?
295. Innis nan Rod, M. 306. Re shireadh fuidh ghrein/Aon ni air nach
gleusta ghabhadh tu, M.
