GHAIDHEALACII. 527
A siùbhal gach dùthcha, 'g an dùsgadh gu fearg, —
xlch 's beag is mò leam-sa ciod a their iad :
Fadadh-cruaidh air an gruaidh suas anns na crannagan,
Sùil chlaon air gach taobh 'glaodhaich gu faramach.
Mur aontaich sibh leinne bi'dh sibh sgrioste gun ilàil ;
Acli 's b^ag is mò leam sa ciod a their iad.
Aig an Athair tha brath air an aidmheil a's fcàrr,
(Tcd is V)eag is mò leam-sa ciod a their iad ;
C(') 'n t-aon a tha ceart, no cò e 'tha ceàrr, —
Ged 's beag is mò leam-sa, ciod a their iad :
'S ann their luchd aidmheil ri 'chèile. "Cha'n 'eil stoidh
ann a'd' theagasg, —
Tha sgriobtur 's a' Bhìolmll, ag ìnnseadh gun teagamh.
Gur mise 'tha ceart, agus thusa 'tha ceàrr;"
Ach 's beag is mò leam-sa ciod a their iad.
'S e m' athchuing 's a' mhaduinn air Athair nan gràs, —
Ced 's beag is mò leam-sa ciod a their iad, —
E chumail mo chridhe gun smal air gu bràth,
Ged 's Ijeag is mò leam-sa ciod a their iad, —
Le seirc a's truas, iochd do 'n t-sluagh, 's a bhi gun uaiU
spioradail.
Dùilean breòit' a tha fo leòn fheòraich 'an trioblaid,
Ged theireadh gach fear dhiubh gu'n robh mi gun ghràs,
Gur beacr is mò leam-sa ciod a their iad.
