29S TIGHMORA. duan vt
Tha thiisa d*aoliar air an t-sliabh,
A righ nan liath chiabh o Shelma. 180
Chuir mi e an carraig nan còs
Aig fiiaim nan sruth mòr san oidhche ;
Bha dearg reul a' sealltuinn o*n tòrr,
Nach do chuir am fear òg an soiUse :
Thog na gaotha mall a chiabh. 185
Bha mi *g èisdeachd — cha chualas fuaim :
Bha *n gaisgeach gun tuar am pràmh.
Mar dhealan air neul dubh-dhonn
Ghhiais smuainte gu trom mo chHabh ;
Mo shùile mar thein ann mo cheann, 190
Mo cheuma nach mall air sliabh
Measg farum mo chruaidh mhàile.
Tachraidh mise is righ Eirinn :
Measg co'-thional cheud tachraidh sinn.
C'uim a theicheadh an neul so fèin, 195
A chuir dearrsa nan speur air chùl ?
Lasaibh tein-athair nan cruach,
Lasaibh suas, mo shinns're.fein ;
Is cuiribhse mo cheum fo shoillse —
Caithidh mis* an nàmhaid am feirg. 200
Ach mur tilleadh mise fèin,
Tha 'n righ fo bheud is e gun mhac ;
Tha hath chiabh measg naimhdean an trèin
A làmh an robh feum fo sraachd ;
A chHu a' sìoladh sios an Eirinn. 205
Na faiceam gu sìorruidh an sàr
An deireadh nam blàr fo smal.
Ach cia mar thilleam fèin do 'n righ ?
Nach fìosraich e le brìgh m'a mhac ?
C'uim nach d'thug thu Filiean o'n strì ? 210
