94 DAN ka DU-.THUINN.
Bhuail Conar beum-fgèithe,
'S ghrad-leum a laochraidh na dhàil ;
Mar chaochain Chaothain a bhruchdas bras,
Tra thaomas frafachd a cheituin.
Chòlaich firm a cheil' agus ghleachd ;
Thuit Daorla nam feachd le Conar;
Chunna* Fionn e na luidhe gu hiofal,
'S labhair e gu fiobhalt r'a fhearaibh.
•• Cha 'n ait le Fionn a nàmh bhi truagh,
Ge d' fpion iad o thruaill an claidhe'.
Rachaibh gur duthaich gu'r dàil,
Ach gu brath na pillibh ath-bhuaiit.
'S gairid gearr beatha mo namh-fa,
Mar cheo thig an dàil na garbh-ghaoith ;
No mar cheathach air bheanntaibh arda,
Nuair bheanas dha neart an àilidh.
Cjiulaini'bh Daorla gu thir,
'S gu togadh Min-lamh a leac;
An ceòpan Char'uth chi i aogus,
'S e fein na chaol-thigh ùrach.
Com' a dbuifg thu o d' fhuain co moch,
Le d' chleachda fliuch air ailbheinn fhuair,
