102 TIGHMORA. diai
Tha aomadh dhà chraoibli thar an t-sruth ;
An sin a sheas sàniliach ani bròn
Sìol Dhuthno nan còmlirag còrr ;
Fuil a taomadh "s ag iadhadh m'a thaobh,
A sgiath sgoillt' is briste air raon.
Ri carraig a sheas a shleagh mhòr.
C'uim, a Dhearmuid, cho dubhach do Ijhròn ?
" Tha mi cluinntinn garbh fhuaim a' chòmhraig
Mo chairde air chòmhnard leò fèin,
Mo cheunia gu mall, air a' mhòr mhagh ;
Sgiath bhriste an comhstri gun t'heum.
'M bi esan a ghnàth fo bhuaidh ?
Bidli Dearmud san uaigh le cliu,
Seal mu 'n èiricli an dùbhra suas.
Gairmidh mi thusa gu còmhrag,
Is tach'ream ri mòrchuis Fholdaith."
Ghlac e shleagh le sòlas ciar,
Mac Mhorni an triath g'a thaobli.
" Mhic Dhuthno, caisg-sa do luaths ;
Tha do cheuma gun tuar fo fhuil ;
Cha leat-sa garbh chopan do sgèith ;
C' uim a thuiteadh an triath gun airm ?"
" Shll Mhorni, dhomhsa do sgiath ;
Is tric a dh' aom i sìos an còmhrag :
Caisgidh mi shiubhal air sliabh.
Shìl Morni, faic clach air chòmhnard ;
Clach a thog a Hath cheann suas
Roi' 'n fheur a tha fuaim an gaoith :
Tha aomadh dhà chraoibli thar an t-sruth ;
An sin a sheas sàniliach ani bròn
Sìol Dhuthno nan còmlirag còrr ;
