*' Glac sòlas a Fhlòraidh
Tha òganaich Fhraugach
A dh' èii-eas neo ghania leam
A bhuannachd mo chrùin ;
'S tha lasgairean anaghlounach
'N Albainn a dhùisgeas,
Le'n trusgauaii balla-bhreac,
'S le'n armaibh math, dùbailt',
Thèid cath-thromp nan garbh-chrioch
Le borb-sgread gu bùirich,
'S bidh trupaii ean crùbach
Gun lùgh's anns gach ciiil ! "
Dh' fhàg e i 'caoineadh
'Na h-aonar air tràghaid,
A's sheòl e 's ii bhàt' uaip'
A' fàsgadh nan dòrn ;
Bha 'cUabh air a lìonadh
Le h-iarguin los sgàineadh,
'S i airsne;ilach, ànrach,
Gun mhànran, gun cheòl.
Laidh braona na h-oidhch*
Air a' mhaighdinn ghlain, àluinn —
Bha 'h-inntinn gu luaineach
Aii' chuan mar ri Teàilach —
Cha 'n f liac i e tuille
Chum na builean a phàigheadh ;
Ach mheudaich a gràdh dha
Gach là bha i beò.
DO SHIR EACHANN MAC-'ILLEAIN.
Le Mairearad NÌ'c-Lacliainn,
'Thi tha 'n cathair nam feartan
Cum ceart agus còir ruinn,
'S cuir deadh sgeul thugainn dhachaidh
Air Sìr Eachann nan ròiseal :
'S ach machaidh thu as t' fhearann,
'S tu bhi tamall air fògradh
