Cha bu choimeas bhur n-aithriche fèin
Ann an comhstri nam beum air raon.
Tha màthair Chùihnhìn anns an talla,
A sùil air gorm chlàra nan sruth ;
Tha fiar ghaoth ag <iirigh o fhairge
Ag iadhadh 's a tarruing gu dubh
Mu chruth is mu thaiblis a mic ;
Tha donnal chon "nan ;'lite fèin,
A sgiatli gun f heum san tall' am fuil.
" Na thuit thu, a mhòir chia bha treun
An còmhrag nam beud an Eiriun !"
Mar ruadhaig fo fhiui gu dlomhair
Sìnnte slos m" a sruthanaibli fèiu ;
Chi sealgair an luigliean gu flieum
Bidh cuimlme a ceum 'na chliabh :
Mar sin a shlnear mac Chiiil-àluinn
Fo shiiile an t-sàir air 'sliabh,
Barr a chiabh' an sruthan caol,
Fuil a briseadh air aomadh a sgèithe.
Bha h\mh san àm air lann gun bheud,
A chruaidh a thrèig an treun an cunnart.
" Thuit thu," thuirt Fillean, 's e brònach,
" Ma's an cualadh aìr chòir do chliu.
Chuir d' athair air feachd thu le còmhrag ;
Tha'bharail gu 'n cluinn e as ùr
Do gnlomha a' dlùthadli m'a chluais.
Tha e liath aig a shruthaibh fèin ;
Tha'shùil air Moilèua nan sìan;
Cha bu choimeas bhur n-aithriche fèin
