22 DAIN AGUS ORAIN.
MJKDUBU.
A's chlaon e fadheoi air an fhraoch,
Thainig a ghealach o neoil j
A's chunnas mo charaid na fhuil.
" An do thuit thu, bhrathair ghaoil ?" 395
Thuirt an oigh, *s an t-aog na beul :
" 'S nach faic t-athair thu tilleadh o'n t-sealg ?''
O ! Mhorf huilt an tìr chein,
C'aite an eirich do shleagh ?
Cha chluinn thu guth mo bhrathar fein, 400
Cur fàilt ort tille le d' chUu.
Ach uair eiginn thig an laoch,
A's togaidh e 'n uaigh da rùn.
Tharuing mi 'n t-saighead o'n chreuchd —
'S a h-uchd min-gheal air a lot ! 405
A's sliil mo dheoir le braona foUi
Na h-ighin, 's a suilean a pUiosga.
'N uair chun i lamh Mhorfhuilt na fuil,
Scread i mar thannasg, a's theich
A taibhse air nealai na gealaich. 410
Ceithir clilocha le 'n còinich lia,
Thogadh sud mu uaigh an laoich.
