AM FEAR-CIUIL. 93
A' CHEILIDH.*
FoNN — '• Cabarfèidh."
Bha mise 'n raoir air chèilidh,
'S gu 'm b' èibhinn a' chuideachd sinn ;
Bha maithean à Duneideann,
A' Chlèir 's am Bàrd Luideagach ;
Bha rannan againn 's sèisdean,
Le sgeulachdan 's luinneagan,
'S bha mise cur an cèill dhaibh,
Na dh' èirich dhomh thubaistean ;
H-uiIe duine 's muinntir Mhuile
A' toirt buiUe 'n bhata dhomh,
Nach b' fhearr mo ghuth na cearc air ghur,
Gun bhàrr, gun bhun, am achmhasan ;
Gu 'n d' fhàg mo thuigse mi gu tur,
'S gu 'n d' fhàs gun phurp mo sgathbhardachd,
Bho 'n chuir mi corrag èibhinn,
Air Ephoid na Sagartachd.
Thuirt Mac-ic-IUemhìcheil,
Gu 'm b' fhìgearach duine mi ;
Is ghuidh e agus ghrìos e,
Air Brìde, no cuideigin ;
Mo chur o m' bhonn gu m' chìrein,
An sìoman de dh' ubagan,
Air neo gu 'n tugainn mì-chliu,
