lAIN BAN MAOR. d
V.
Chìnn ciith thalmhuinn air fea' an t-shaoghall,
A ghrian do chaochail is dhubh na neoil ;
'S e paigheadh eiric a chinneadh-daonna,
Pris bu daoire gu mor no an t-òr. *
VI.
Thilg an traip ud sleagh na thaobh geal,
'S bha fhuil gu craobhach a' suithadh'nuas ;
'S cruaidh am bas a dh' fhuihng ar Slanuighear,
Mu'n do chaireadh e ann san uaigh.
VII.
Chai' luchd fai're teann mar glieard air,
Leis an dream sin a bha gun chiall,
Ach dh'eirich an gaisgeach, is theich na fogarraich,
Dh' fhas crith mhor orra, agus fia'.
An treas la dh'a air teachd o'n bhlàr sìn,
Air a bhas gun d'thug e buaidh ;
'S chai' air deas-laimh 'n ard Righ a reiteach àite,
'S na h-ionadaibh 's airde le failt d'a shluaorh.
Eisean a' cheannuich sinn le mhor fhuil,
'S a dh' fhosgail roi'inn dorus rèigh ;
Deanamaid raoghain de' mar pliorsan,
Thair gach storas a tha fo'n ghrein.
X.
Tha maor an ard-righ raar chlaidheamh namhaid,'*
Ann's gach aite doU mu'n cuairt ;
Gach neach nadi bàsuich na chriosduidh sàbhallt,
'S truagh a charamh 'n taobh thall do'n uaigh.
