174 CLARSACII NA COILLE.
'S aobhar bròin dhomh a bhi 'g innse
Gu blieil thii 's a' chill ud thall
Air do thaagadh glaiste, dionacli
'S gur a h-iosal learn do cheann.
Bidli tu 'm chuimhne 'là 's a dh' oidhche,
'8 trie a tigh'iui fo m' shuim do chall ;
Clmir e mulad mòr air m' inntinn,
'8 tu l)hi dhith oirnu brigh viio rami.
C ait' am faic mi fear do choltais
(led-a chruinnichinn pailteas shiaigh',
Bho mhullach do chinn gu d' shàiltean
C!ha robh failiim dhuit mu 'n cuaii't,
Blia thu càirdeil, tialaidh, pairteach,
Ciallach nàracli làn de stuaim ;
'8 tu nach euradh càs an flieumaich,
Gu "m bu gldan do Itlieus r'a luaidli.
Bha do bheus 's do cliliù gun mhcaraclid,
Bha thu ceanalt' air gach dòigli :
Bha thu spracail, bha thu smaclidail,
Bha thu tlachdmhor, bha thu coir.
Bha thu siobhalra gun mhiothlaclul,
"8 tu gun mhiorùn do neach beò ;
Spiorad Gàidheil bha co-fhàs riut
Blio na dh' àraicheadh tliu òg.
Bu tu 'm fear spioradail meanmnach,
Cha robh thu cearbach no fanu,
Bu tu 'm fear crnadalach, calma,
'S eòlas àrd neo-leanabaidh ad cheann.
