MARBH RANN
AIB AN
MINISTEIR BHA ANNS A CHAISTEAL RUADH
AiB FONN — " Oran Clarsair Mhic Leoid, 'sam
Mac-taUa."
'N SGEULA fhuar mi Di-luan,
Chuir e m'intinn fo ghruaim an drasd' ;
'S gus am mulad 'Chuir 'uam,
Ni mi'n t-aobhar a luaidh an dan :
Ged tha 'm bron na ni cruaidh,
'S gur h e fheuchain' chuir' uain a b'f hearr,
larraidh nadur air uair
'Bhi ga altrum le truas, 'us blaths'.
Ah ! a theachdaire chruaidh,
Tha gun ghradh, tha gun truas gun daimh,
Nach dean saibhreas no uaisl'
Nach dean maise no buaidhean aillt',
Thus' a chumail 'uain uair ;
'S tric gun rabhaidh 'bhuiH' f huar o d'Iaimh.
'S iomadh cridh' rinn thu truagh,—
'S cùis eagail 's gach uair thu bhàis.
