'S mo cliaraid inaith Toin Callander
Bhcir iasad dhomh d'a eacli "
" Piseacli ort," ars' is', " a ghràidli,
Is o'n tlia'm fion co daor,
Gu'n toir mi leam mo slicarrag fe'in,
tha e maith, is saor."
Thug lain sgailce pòige dh'i,
Mar b' àbhaist leis gu tric ;
Oir bha e subhach toilichte,
1 bhi co crionna ghlic.
Tliàinig an carbad 'nuas gu moch
Sa' mhaduinn mar a gheall ;
'S air lalbh 'na dheann-ruith gliabh e leo,
Troimh eabar, is troimh plioll.
Bu sliiùbhlach hiath na cuibhleachan,
'S a' chuip mu chUias' nan each,
Le gleadliraich shaoileadh tu gu'n robh
An cabhsair as a bheachd.
Sheas lain Gilpin taobli an eich,
Is ghlac e 'mliuing gu deas ;
Ach 's gann a f huair e suas gu h-àrd,
'Xuair b' èigimi teachd air ais.
Cha hiaithe ràin' e'n dìollaid shuas,
Le 'tliulchaimi air an each,
Na chumiaic e triùir clieannaichean
D'a bhùth a' dol a steach.
Theirimi e, 's cha b'ann d'a dheùin,
Oir bha e dian gu falbli ;
Ach cha dùraigeadh e lcis an t-sannt
An sgilhrm-ruadh a chall.
