Gu'n toir sinn dha aobliar a' ghearain,
Mar thug sinn do cheannaircich riabh —
'Smar riun sinn fo Ridire Cailean,
'S na Gàidheil 'ga leanailt gu dian —
A thràillean a thilleadh le'r deanual,
'Dhol dachaidh a dh' f heannadh nam bian,
O nach robh sinn, &c.
CUMHA DO FHEAR SHRATH-GHLAIS;
A THUIT LATHA CHUILODAIR
ie ^bhean fein.
Och ! a Thèarlaich òig Stiùbhart,
'S e do chìiis 'rinn mo lèireadh,
Thug thu uam gach ni bh' agara,
Ann an cogadh a'd' aobhar ;
Cha chrodh, a's cha chàirdean
Riun mo chràdh, ach mò chèile,
O'n là dh' f hàg thu mi 'm aonar.
Gun sian 'san t-saoghal ach lèine —
Mo rùn geal, òg.
Cò nis 'thogas an claìdheamh,
No ni chathair a lionadh,
'S gann gur h-e tha air m' aire,
O nach maireann mo chiad-ghràdh ;
Ach ciamar gheibhiun o m' nàdur
A bhi 'g àicheadh na 's miann leam,
A's mo thò^radh cho làidir
'Thoù-t gu 'àite mo righ raàth ?
Mo rùn geal, òg,
Bu tu 'm fear slinneanach, leathann,
Bu cbaoile mèadhon, 'sbu dealbhaich';
Cha bu tàilear gun eòlas
'Dheauadh còta math, gearr dhuit ;
No 'dheanadh dhuit triubhas,
Gun bhi cumhann no gann duit :
