DUAN I. CATH LODUINN, 9
Talla cònuidh nan triath ard.
Chunnaic airm Starno 'na làimh ;
Las sòlas an anam na h-òigh : 24«5
Chunnaic sgiath Shuarain r'a thaobh,
Is thionndaidh o cheannard an t-slòigh,
*' An do thuit thu aig do cheud sruth
A rùin ainnir nan ceud bròn ?'*
Uthorno a dh'èireas o uisge, 250
Air do thaobh tha dealain na h-oidhche.
Chi mi ghealach dubhach donn,
Am measg nan tonn, air chiìl do choill* 5
Ri d' mhullach tha Loduinn sna neoil,
Tigh mòr nan seòd a dh*aom o shean. 255
An ceann an talla chithear thall
Cruth Loduinn nan gorm lann ;
Chithear, mar f haileas an ceò,
'Dheas làmh an scleò air ni mar sgèith ;
'Lamh chH air slige nach faoin, 260
Slige sòlais nam mòr thriath.
An talla taibhs*, bu ghlaise snuadh,
Chìt* aisre dealain nan stuadh.
Chruinnich sìol Loduinn r*a chùlaobh,
Seoid as ùr, is suinn o shean, 265
Shìn esan an t-slige chùbhraidh
Dhoibhs* a shiubhladh gu còmhrag glan ;
Eadar e 's geilteara dh'èirich
An sgiath bhallach, bhearnach, dhonn,
Mar ghealach a* dubhadh sna speuraibh, 270
No tein-athair a' luidh air an tom.
Mar bhogha braoin air aghaidh stuadh
Thàinig òigh bu ghloine snuadh.
