Is ioma' fgairteachd is gul geur,
Re cluinntin doibh fgeul a chraidh.
Ag niallachadh cheile gu leir,
Scarachduinn re Uan a ghraldh.
Ann teach ga milleadh cuirfear iad,
'S iad foi dhio'ltas an Aird Righ,
Gun dull re furtachd no re has,
Gu brath cha 'tig iad anios.
Fafaidh an cuirp co chruaidh re prais,
Mar iarunn an lamh 's an cas,
Ga'n cunbhail beo ann an fir phian,
Teine diain gu'n fhurtachd as.
Aon latha dhoibh mar bhlianaibh buan,
'N lagan loifgeach cruaidh ann ias,
Ga'n liodairt le teas agus fuachd ;
Sud an duais cia fhad an dail.
M' achuinge riuts' air fcath do mhic,
Meaduich mo ghliocas le gras,
Thoir fuasgladh laor dhamh anns gach cuis.
Seal mu'n druid mo fhuil le bas.
Comhrag Fheinn agus Mhanui'
GE b' e bhiodh leinne an laoi.
Air an traidh tha fiar foi dheas,
Aig uifge Laoi're na'n fruth feamh.
Air an Fheinn bu mhor a mheas.
Beannachd air anam an Laoich,
Bu gharbh fraoch anns gach treis,
Ard Righ Lochlainn ceann na'n treun,
'S ann air a fliloinnteadh an t eas.
Magnus.
