Tharnùng c 'n t fleagh o'n dorn gheal bham
Chum a fathadh ann a chorp,
Bhrifeadh leis an cran n^ thri
Gun aon mhir dh'e bhith fan tore.
Tharruing e 'n t feann lann as an truaill,
O's i bhuidhneadh buaidh 's gach blar,
*S mharbhadh leis an uile bheift
Is thearuinn e na dhiaidh flan.
Luidh fproc air Fionn fial
Is leig e fiar e ris a chnoc,
Mac o Duimhne nan arm aigh
A dhol as gu flan o 'n tore.
Air dh'a bhith tamull na thpfd
Labhair Fionn 's gu'm b' olc r'a radh }
A Dhiarmuid tomhis an tore
Cia meud traigh o fhoc gu fhail.
Cha do dhiult e achuing' Fhinn,
*S aithreach leinn a theachd o'n tigb,
Thomhis e 'n tore air a dhruim
Mac o Duimhne nior throm traigh
Se traighe deuga do dh'fhior thomhas
A tha 'n druim na muice fiadhuich,
Cha n e fin idir a thomhas
Tomhis e ris a Dhiarmid.a
A Dhiarmid tomhis a ris
Na aghuidh gu min an tore ;
Roghainn a gheabhadh tu ga cfaeann
Togha nan lano rinn-gheur goirt^
Thomhuis c, 's cha bu turus aigh,
Mae o Duimhne nach trom traigh j
ThoU am friogh nimhe bha garg
Bonn an laoich bu gharg fan ttod.
