No vaillj mj mj lejn

Gir gna leo vi ri oile
Cha nell misk no merran orm
Gairrish defi mj skoilc
Ach shiiid mil- hA mj varroils
Ga ycammidigh mi gloir
Ris hainig i gliannoso orn
Gir failles ea na koih
Sgir oximb naigh va ajirrjgh
Ra cyhin as i hoise
Cha chreddig ead nach baingle ea
Hug flahis daj da yoine
Ach noiihre hig i siiljne daj
Si ghfiiskis ead er choir
Cha vegg i tevir tuirse leo
Noide rejn ead do
Zerich ead gi bastjligh

Noiihre yisrich ead i cofuidordi?i

^ Ged their iad ris na ceardainean
Gur gnath leo bhi ri òl,
Cha 'n 'eil misg no mearan orm
'G aithris diu mo sgeoil ;
Ach 8ud mar tha mo bharail-sa.,
Ge h-amaideach mo ghloir,
An Righ-sa thainig a dh' annas oiriin
Gnr feallsa e na ceo.
