A glilinn lid shios, a ghliiin ud shios,
Gur troni an diugh mo shiiil,
A' dearcadh air do lagaiu àigli
Mar b' àbhaist doihh 'o thus.
Tlia do choilltean fatliasd dosrach, àrd,
'S gach sithein àillidh, uain';
'S fuaim an lù])-uillt nuas o d' flirith'
'N a shuaiii-clieiil sith 'ain chluais.
Tlia 'n spreidh ag ionaltradh air do mhàgh,
Na caoraich air an raon :
Tlia 'cliurra 'g iasgach air do tliraigli,
'S an fhaoilean air a' chaol.
Tlia guth na cuthaig air do stiiclid,
An smiidan air do gheig, —
Os ceann do Ion tha 'n uiseag giirinn
Ri ceileir binn 's an speur.
Tha suaimhneas amis gach Iui])h fo bhlàtli,-
Bàigh air gach creig 'us cluain,
'Toirt 'am chuimhne mar a bha
'S na làithean 'thàrladh uainn.
Puaira do chaochaiu, fead na gaoith',
'Us luasgan àrd nan geug,
'G ath-imadhachadh le comhradli tlàtli
Nan làithean àigh a tlirèig.
Ach clii mi d'fhàrdaich air dol sios,
'N an làraich', fhalamh, fhuar ;
Cha-ii fhaic fear-siul^hail, far nan stùclid
Na smùidean 'g eiridh suas.
