NA OISAIN AGUS PATRIC MACALPIN AlO TAOKADH RA
CHEILE.
OlSAIN.
1 Innis tlbuiune, 'Phàdruic,
Air onoir do leubbaidb ;
'Bheil neamb gu. b-àraidh,
Aig Maitbibb Fiann na Feinne.
Patbic.
2 Dh' inninse sin dbuitsa,
Oisain nan glond ;
Cba' nail neamh aig t-athair,
Aig Osgar no aig Goull.
Oisain.
3 'S olc an sgeula àraidb,
Tha agad dbuinn' a Cbleirich ;
Com am bitbinnse ri crabbadb,
Mur 'eil neamb aig Maitbibb Fiann na Feinne.
Patric.
4 Oisain gur fada do sbuain,
Eirich suas is eisd na sailm ;
Cbaill tbu nis do luth 's do ratb,
'S cba cbuii- tbu catb ri la-garbb.
Oisain.
5 Mu cbaill mi mo lutb 's mo ratb,
'S nach cuir mi catb ri la-garbb ;
Do d' cbleirsneacb gur beag mo speis,
'S de cheol eisdeachd m 'm fiach leom.
Pateic.
6 Nior cbual tu co-maith mo cbeoil,
Bbo tbiis an dombunn mhoir gus a' nochd ;
'S tba tbu aosda ana-gblic liatb,
Tbii- a db' ioladb cliar air cnoc.
Oisain.
7 'S trie a dbiol mi cliar air cnoc,
'lulla Pbàdruic is olc run ;
'S eucor dbuit a chain mo cbruth,
Bbo nacb d' tbuair mi gutb an tiis.
Pateic.
8 Cbualas ceol bu bbinue na d' cheol,
Ge mor a nxbolas tu do cbliar ;
Ceol air nacb luigh leatrom laoicb
Faobbar cuilg ris an ord Fiann.
Oisain.
y N' ar a sbuidbe Fionn air cnoc,
'S a sbeinneadb è port don ord Fiann ;
Gu 'n cuii-eadb è cbadull na sloig,
'S oob-òin ba bhinne è na do cbliars.
10 Smeoraicbe bheag Gblinne-smail,
'S faotbar na barr ris an torn ;
Is sbeinneadb-midne leò puirt,
'S bba sinn fbin 's air cruit ro-bhinn.
11 Bba da gbaodbar-dbeug aig Fionn,
'S leigeamaid iad re Gleann-smail ;
'S bu bbinne learn prosnuicb air con,
Na da cbluigse Cbleirich àigb.
12 Ach ciod a rinn Fionn air Dia,
Rinn è rian cbliar agus sgolp ;
Thug è latba ri pronuadh oir,
'S an ath-la ri meathair ebon.
Patric.
] 3 Se miad 'ur ruighe ri meathair chon,
'S bhi diola' sgolp gach aon la,
'S gun urram a thoirt do Dbia,
Anis tba Fionn nam Fiann an laimh.
Oisain.
14 'S olc a chreideas mi do sgeul,
A Cbleirich le d' leabhar ban ;
Gu biodh Fionn Mac Cutbail no cho fial,
Aaig duine na aig Dia ann laimh.
Patric.
15 Tha è 'n ifrinn ann an laimh,
'M fear le gbna bhi pronna' oir ;
'S tbaobh miad a dhi-meas air Dia,
Chuii'te è 'n tigh pian fu' bbron.
Oisain.
IG N' am hiodh Clanna-Baoisge a steach,
'S Clanna Moirne nam fear train ;
Bheireamaidne Fionn a mach,
Neo bhiodh an teacb again fein.
Pateic.
17 Maithean na Feinne ma saach,
Leasta ge bu mhor an t-eucbd ;
Cba tugadb sud Fionn a mach,
Ni mo bhiodh an teach agaibh fein.
Oisain.
18 Is ciod è an t aite ifrinn fein,
A Cbleirich a lèubhas an sgoil ;
Nach bu co-maith è ri flaitheas De,
Na faigheamaid ann fèidh is coin.
Patkic.
19 Ge beag a chu' ill cbronnanach^
Is mònaran na grèiue ;
Cba theid guu fbios don Righ mhoralach,
Fu' bhar bhilibh a sgeidhsan.
Oisain.
20 Cba b' ionnan è 's Fionn mac Cutbail,
Aji Righ bh' againn air na Fiannaibh ;
Dh' fhaodaodh Tr an dombunn,
Dol na thallasan gun iarraidh.
Pateic.
21 Na coi-meas thus duine ri Dia,
'Sa shean f hir leitb na 'oreitbnich è ;
'S fhad bbo thainig a reachd,
Is seasmhaidh a cheart gu la bhra.
Oisain.
22 Choi-measainse Fionna mac Cuthail,
Ri aon neach a sheall sa ghrèin ;
Cba d' iarr e riamh ni air neach,
'S cba mho dh' eur è neach mu ni.
23 Thug sinne latha air sliabh Bhòid,
Bha Caoilte am 's bu cbruaidh a lamb ;
Osgar agus Goull nan sleagb,
Diarmad on Mhaoth 's Fraoch on Ghleann.
24 Fionn mac-Cuthail bu mhor pris,
Bha è na Righ oirn san am ;
'S a Chleii'icb nam bacbull fiall,
Cha leigeamaid Dia bhos au- cionn.
Patkic.
25 'Se sin a chuir as dhiubh riamh,
Nach do chraid sibb 'n Dia nan dul ;
'S cha mhairtbean duine d'ar sliocbd,
'S ni beo ach riochd Oisian iur.
Oisain.
26 Cha b'e sin a chuir as dbuinn,
Ach turns Fhinn 'dhol don Roimh ;
Bhi cuir catb araid leinu fein,
'Se chuir as d' ar Feinn gu mor.
Patric.
27 'S olc learn sin 'uaitse Oisain,
Fhir nam briathra' bòile ;
'S gum b' fhearr Dia ri aon uair,
Na Fiann na Feinne uile.
Oisain.
28 B' fhearr learasa aon chath laidir
A chuireadh Fiann na Feinne ;
Na Tighearna a chràbhaidh sin,
Is thusa a Cbleirich
