nuAN n. TIGHMORA. 2S9
Ma shaltraicheas sluagh thar mo bhàs 400
O chopa tog ard am fuaim ;
Dùisg Fionnghal air faire nan carn
Seal mun siubhail a chhu 's a bhuaidh.
Mi gluasad an torrunn nan arm,
Mo gharbh cheum thar sruthaibh a* leum, 405
Bha 'g iadhadh tre 'n diàbhra ro* shàr,
Righ Atha nam blàr 's nam beum,
Ghrad-thàinig righ Atha fo shleagh
Air mo shiubhal ro* mhagh am mùig.
An sin a bhiodh an còmhrag garbh 510
Mar thauais nam marbh a* spairn,
A* cromadh o nialaibh, tha falbh,
Taomadh gaoith air faobhar nan carn ;
Mar fhaiceadh Oisian arda shuas
Cruaidh cheanna-bheart righre na h-Eirinn, 41J»
Sgiath iolair a' sgaoile m* an cuairt,
Measg iomairt nam fuar ghaoth :
Measg *ite bha reul a' boillsgeadh.
Chaisg mi san oidhche mo shleagh.
*' Tha ceanna-bheart nan righre a'm Ghòir!420
Co thusa, mhic dubhadh nan speur ?
Am bi cHu do shleagh Oisein, fhir mhòir,
'Nuair a thuiteas an còmhrag an treun ì'*
Ghrad-aom e a shleagh o cheann,
Mo choinneamh a' fàs an cruth mòr, 425
Shìn e anns an oidhch' a làmh
*S e labhairt focail chòrr nan righ.
" A chara' taibhse faoin nan sonn,
*Na thachair an dìibhra sinnfèin ?
C'uim nach fhacas do cheum, a sheoid, 430
An laitliidh sòlais Atha nan teud ?
