CLARSACH NA COILLE. 47
'N uaii- fhuair e bho 'cheile, an t-ordagh 'bha feu-
mail
Thuii-t Iain, cha blu'eugan a dh' eisd thu bho 'm
ghi'àdh,
Ged 's ainmeil a bhuannachd cha 'n 'eil i ach
suarach,
Tha mòran 'dol bhuam di an tuarasdal chàich.
Cha 'n urrainn mi innse gach ni 'tha cur pris air,
Bu trie 'bha mi sgith mu 'n do mhinich mi e.
Bu ghoirt bha mo dhriom deth ga cheangal le
siomain
'S ga tharruing le dichioU, a digibh dubh,
grannd.
Bu draghail an ni dhomh 'bhi 'siubhal tràigh
Chrionaig
'Toirt shligean a nios aisd, le inean mo làmh
'S bu chosdail gu cinnteach an losgadh gu grios-
aich
'S an toirt gu aol brioghmhor, geal, min air an
làr.
A mhòin' anns an fhearann cha 'n fhaigh mi r'a
ceannach,
Tha againn ri tarruing, 's tha 'm faradh fior-àrd,
'S a' chairt, tha i priseil ge pailt i 'san rioghachd,
'S tha cusbunn an righ oirre 'mhiodachadh mail.
