MOXADH-MHEANGAN. 73
'S e mo thaigh-mor gach creagan ;
'S i mo leaba gach frog ;
'S e mo sheileir gach lodan ;
'S e mo chopan mo bhrog !
Tha mo bhreacan 'n a shioman,
Mo leine mhingheal 'n a Ion.
'S ged a dh' f hadas mi teine,
Chi fear-feille dheth ceo.
Cha b'e direadh a' bhruthaich,
'Dh' fhàg mo shiubhal gun treòir ;
No teas an la glirèine,
Cha b'e no eireadh an reòdht'.
'S i do nighean òg 'Dhonnachaidh,
'Chuir an troma-cheist so orm, —
Air an d' f has an ciil dualach,
'SÌOS mu 'guaillean mar or.
Cha bu mhoch-thrath leam èirigh,
Mu-m bu leur dhomh mo bhrog ;
Mu-m bu leur dhomh cho fada,
His a' bhat ann am dbbrn.
Gar am b' ann a ghoid chapuD,
No a ghadachd nam bo. —
Ach a shealltainn na gruagaich,
A's trie a luaidheadh rium og.
Chi mi 'n suirdheach a' tighin,
*S leus figh' air a shroin.
'S beag a shaoil le mo chridhe,
Gu-n deanadh 'nighean ris dòìgh.
