306 TIGHMORA. duan vii.
A* taomadh ceò tanais gu dlùth
Air Faolan aig Lubar nan sruth. 20
Muladach suidhe fo bhròn
Dh*aom an taibhs an ceathach an lòin :
Thaom an osag esan ann fèin ;
Ach phill an cruth àluinn gu dian : .
Phill e le 'chrom shealladh mall, 25
Le *cheò-leadan mar shiubhal nan sìan.
Is doilleir so !
Ata na slòigh 'nan suain san àm
An truscan ciar na h-oidhche.
Dh'ìlsich tein' an righ gu h-ard, 30
Dh'aom e 'na aonar air sgèith :
Thuit codal mu shùihbh a' ghaisgich ;
Thàinig guth Fhaolain 'na chluais.
" An codal so do 'n fhear-phòsda aig Clatho ?
'M bheil còmhnuidli do m' athair an suain ? 35
'M bheil cuimhne 's mi 'n truscan nan nial,
'S mi m* aonar an àm na h-oidhche ?"
" C' ar son tha thu a'm' aisHng fèin ?"
Thuirt Fionnghal 's e 'g èirigh grad.
" An di-chuimhn dhomhsa mo mhac 40
No 'shiubhal teine air rèidhlean nan laoch ?
Ni mar sin air anam an righ
Thig gniomh sheòd àluinn nan cruaidh bheum.
Ni 'n dealan iad a theicheas an dùbhra
Na h-oidhche 's nach fàg a lorg. 45
'S cuimhne leam Faolan *na shuain :
Tha in' anam ag èirigh borb."
Ghluais an righ le 'shleagh gu grad,
Bhuail e 'n sgiath is fuaimnich cop ;
An sgiath a dh'aom san oidhche ard, 50
A* taomadh ceò tanais gu dlùth
Air Faolan aig Lubar nan sruth. 20
Muladach suidhe fo bhròn
Dh*aom an taibhs an ceathach an lòin :
Thaom an osag esan ann fèin ;
Ach phill an cruth àluinn gu dian : .

Le *cheò-leadan mar shiubhal nan sìan.
