GHAIDHEALACH. 391
]\Iu'n gann a fhuaii- iad buille 'tharruing,
Leis na lannan geura
Ghabh na Eussainich an ruaig
A's bhuail iad an Ratreuta.
Bha sian an àigh mu chom a' churaidh,
Urranta, ghlan, mheamnach
A bh'air 'ur ceann gun sgàth gun eagal
Ris an teine mharbhtach —
Ach air mo laimh, 's e fèin a dh'fhaodadh,
As a dhaoin' bhi earbsach —
Be'n iolach-chatha — " Buaidh no bàs " —
'S an àbhaist anns gach aimsir.
'S iomad làrach ri uchd fear-ghniomh,
'S an do dhearbh sibh cruadal,
Na fola prìseil uasal rloghail
'Bu ghlan li 'nur gruaidhean —
A's gus an deachaidh crioch le onoir.
Air a' chogadh bhuan ud
Dhion sìbh cliù na tir a' dh'fhàg sibh,
Anns gach spàirn a's cruaidh-chas.
NIGHEAN DONN NAN RF.TDTT-SHTJIL. ^
AiR FoNiì : — '^Giir trom. trnrìi a la mi."
'S tu nighean donn nan i-èidhshùil,
D' an tug mi spèis 's cha b' aireach leam,
CJia 'n fhaic mi 'nieasg nan ceudan.
Bean aogais rèidh mo leannain-sa.
