Na gaisgich gu 'n trian gun bhuaidh
Mu astar FhiUein an cruas blàir.
Rothmar, sgiath chopach a shluaigh,
Aig dà charraig shuas fo bheumaibh ;
Dà dharaig fo ghaoith o stuaidh
An geuga m'a chruaidh a' leumadh.
Phlaoisg e 'shùile dorcha thall
Ag iadhadh mall m'a chairde fèin,
'S e feitheamh an sàmhchair ri Fillean.
Chunnaic an righ an còmhrag treuu ;
Bha 'anam ag èirigh gun f liìamh.
Mar thuiteas clach Lòda le fuaini
O iomall cruaiche nan druim ard,
'Nuair thogas taibhs an talamh shuas,
Thuit Rotlimar nan cruaidh sgiatii air làr.
Teann air bha do cheuma, Chùihnhlu ;
Thàinig òg nan ciabh ùr fo dheoir;
Ghearr e 'n osag le beumaibh o chùlaobh,
Roimh mheasgadh an dealradh nan lann
Ri Fillean do nacli gaun a' bhuaidh.
Chuir e boglia fo tliaifeid rèidb,
Le Rothmar nan ceud sruth shuas ;
Bha 'n comhara mu ruaidli sa' bheinn,
'S gath grèin' a' leum thar chruaich.
C' uim, a mliic Chùl-àluinn nam beus,
C'uim, a Chùilmhhi gu treun dlicarrsa?
Gath tein e tha losgadh m' an cuairt;
Teich gu luath, a mhic Chùl-aluinn ;
Na gaisgich gu 'n trian gun bhuaidh
Mu astar FhiUein an cruas blàir.
