CEITHREAMH DE lOMARASG.
Cha bhi torn no tulach,
No cnocan buidhe feurach ;
Nach bi seal ga subhaeh,
Is seal ga dubhach, deurach.
Cha bhinn teanga leamJear,
Cha bhiodhain la uat, is la agad ;
Cha ruigin grinneal mo ghraidh,
\S cha chagainm cul mo chompanalch.
S,
Chuala mi chuag gun bhiadh am bhroinn ;
Chunnaic mi 'n searrach is a chùl ruim ;
Chunnaic mi 'n t-seileicheag air an lie luim ;
Dh'ainich mi nac rachadh a bhliadhna 'ud leani.
4.
Is soilleir cu diibh air leana bhàin ;
Is soilleir cu ban air leàna dhuidh ;
Na 'm bithin re fiadhachd na beann :
B'e 'n cu riabhach mo roghain.
