UIDHEAM an diugh mo ghuidhe dhuts, a Dhe,
Gutham an diugh mar a ghuthas guth do bheil,
Cumam an diugh mar a chumas luchd nan nèamh,
Caitheam an diugh mar chaitheas do mhuinntir
fein,
Reacham an diugh a reir do reachd, a Dhe,
Cuiream an diugh mar chuireas naomh an nèamh.
A Chriosda chaoimh a cheusadh air a' chrann,
Gach latha agus gach oidhche cuimhnicheam do bhann ;
Am laighe agus am eirigh geilleam dha do chrois,
Am bheatha agus am bhàs mo shlàint thu agus m'fhois.
Gach latha àirmheam fàth nan tròcair
A bhàirig thu dhomhsa fòill agus fial,
Gach latha bitheam nas lain ann an gràdh dhuit fein
Gach ni a fhuair mi 's ann uat a thàineas,
Gach ni am bheil mo dhùil 's ann o d' run a thigeas,
Gach càil a tha mi mealtainn 's ann o d' shealbh thàthas,
Gach sian a tha mi ag iarraidh 's ann o d' rian a thàrras.
A Dhe naoimh, Athair chaoimh a' bheòil bhioth-bhuain,
Deòin dhomhs an achan bheò seo fhaotainn uat :
Soillsich mo thuigse, lasaich mo thoil, tòisich mo ghniomh,
Brosnaich mo ghràdh, slànaich mo laigse, caimich mo mhiann.
