TIOMNA GHUILL. 61
À thaomas learn ofna gu cruaidh.
'S truagh nach cluinne' tu, ghaoil,
Fuaim bhrifteach tainme
O bheul Ognill, gu d' ghreafad :
Ach 's eagal leam fein nach pill thu,
Chunnas aiiling an raoir :
Bha gach neach air an raon ach Goll;
Tamul as, is a thaice r'a fhleagh,
Bha n' laoch na fheafamh air aona-chois.
Bha chas eile na ceo glas
A charuich gach oiteag a fheideadh,
Chaidh mi fein an còail mo ghaoil,
Ach flieid ofag o'n aonach uam e.
—Ach uam aiflinge geilt,
Pillidh tu, Ri' Strumhoin ;
'S do cheann mar òg-ghnuis na grèine,
'S i 'g eiridh air Crom' Ha * nan taibhfe;
Far an crithich fan òich' an taineal,
'S na tannais a fgairteachd gach taobh dheth:
— Ach theich iad ro aiteal na maidne,
'S ghabh efan le bhata gu gluafad.
