Cha 'n i fud ach a Bhriachaill Bhrochaill,
Bratach Ghuill mhoir mhic Morna,
Nach d' thug traigh* riamh air a h ais ;
Gus 'n do chrith an talamh trom glas.
Our h e bu fhuairnhneas-d' an t frol bhuidhe,
Toifeach teachd is deireadii falbh.

An i fud Bratach Mhic Treun-bhuadhaich ?
Chi mi gille gafta air a ceann,
Is i fein ag togradh thair llaaghadh.

Bratach Chaoihe Mhic Reatha ;
Air mheud d' am bitheadh fa chatb,
Cha bhiodh iomradh ach air an Duibh-nimhe.

Cia i a Bhratach-fa Fliili dhuanaich ?
An i fud Bratach Mhic Treun-bhuadhaich !
Agus gille gafta air a ceann,

Cha 'n I fud ach an fguab-ghabhaidh,
Bratach Ofcair chrodha laidir,
Nuair a rigteadh cath na'n cliar
Cha b' f hiu a fiaraich ach an fguab-ghablialdh.
