dh'orain thaghta ghaidhealach. 235
Thogadli slioggach an reota,
Far fir bhreoite gun sgrid :
'N donus coinnimh no comhail,
No eireacas mor-shhiaigh;
Gun do cheileireabh boidheach,
Cha bhi sòlas na measg.
Ge b' e thionsgain an aimlisg,
'S olc an grund bha 'na inchinn,
'S mor a dhuisg e do dh' arg'maid,
'S do dhroch sheanchas mar ris ;
Dheilbh e misg agus daorach ;
Einn e breisleach san t-saoghal,
B' fhearr nach beirte gu h-aois e,
Ach bas na naoidheachan beag;
Dhuisg e trioblaid is coimh-strith ;
Euisg e biodag' an dornamh ;
Chuir e piobair fa 'n deonachd,
'Nuair a thoisich a mhisg :
Cha chuis bhuinnig a leanmhuinn;
Ach cuis ghuil agus f hahxmhaich ;
'S a chaoi cha 'n urr' 'u ga sheanchas,
Cia mar dh' f halbh do chuid leis.
