DUGHALL CANNANACH. 153
Na li-Iudliaicli tliionail, beag- no mor,
Du'ii mliana dlioirteadli orra nuas ;
'N tra* chuir gach neacli a chuid sa chlar,
Cha robh air barr, no dadum uaith ;
^lar sin ata gach sonas saoghalt',
A tha thu liwtainn ann a d' laimh,
Fa chomhair saibhreas 's inbhe cuirt,
Tlia caitheamh, curam, agns cradli.
Ge d' charnn thu or a d' shlige suas,
Fa chomhair fasuidh an luaidh da reir,
Is ge do chuir thu iimte righachd,
A mheidh cha dirich i na deigh.
Tha cuibhren iomachuidh aig gach neach,
'S ge d' a tha thu meas gur tuiUe b'fhearr;
Cha toir an t-anabarr th' ann an sud,
Am feasd an cudthrom as a chradh.
O iomluas t-inntinn tha do phian,
A diultadh an diu na dh" iar thu 'n de ;
Cha chomasach an saoghal do riar,
Le t-ana mianna 'n agliaidh cheil'.
Na'm faigheadh toil na feol' a run
Da mianna bruideil dh'iarraidh sath :
Flaitheas a b'aird cha 'n iarradh i,
No annta sud bhi siorruidh snamh.
Acli ge do b' ionmhuinn leis an fheoil,
Air talamh comhnuchadh gach re ;
Bhiodh durachd' t-ardaiu' agus t-uaill,
Co ard shuas re cathair Dhe.
