'S trie d'bha mi 's tu fugradh
Ann am buthan na raimhe. *
Ann an coille nam badan
Is trie a ghlac thu air laimh mi.
'S cha b'e t' fhuath thug dhomh t'eiteach,
Ach mi bhi teifteil mu m' nàire.
Ach ma chaidh thu nunn thalris
A dh'f hios na cail' tha 'n Dun-fcathalch ',
Truagh a righ, nach tu gheibheadh ;
Fuar fodhadh 'an dels a bathaidh;
'S gach bean a chaidh luaidh riut
A bhi fan uaigh o cheann raith :
Ach mife bhi fallain,
Is thufa mairtheann 'nad' flilainte ;
Thus' is mife, laoigh ghaolaich,
A bhi 'nar n-aonar am f afach •,
Sinn bhi 'n eilein 'nar dithis ;
O 's e mo chridhe tha 'n geall air !
Fior thoifeach an dubhlaich
Dh'fhalbh mo ftiuir 's mo chroinn-bhragad.
Ach a righ mlioir a' chruinne,
Cum 'na thur is 'na thamh e •,
Cus am bcannuich iad Muile
