THE DEATH OF CARItL. S3?
2.
Dh'elrich gu spairneachd na Shuinn,
Bu truime no'n tuinn cuilg an cos ;
Sroinich an cuim chluinte cian,
'S an.Fhiann gu cianail fui' sprochd.
Clachan agus talmhinn trom,
Threachailte le'm buinn san stri ;
A' cliarachd re fad an la.
Gun fhios cia dhiu b'fhearr sa ghnlomh.
4.
Air madainn an dara mhaireach,
Chuai' na Suinn an dail a cheil ;
Cairill cuilgeara, nam buadh,
Agus GoU nan cruai' lann geura.
5.
Dh'iathadh, dh'imiridh, agus th'nrneadh,
lad gu nài5innice sa chumasg ;
Gu cuidreach, cudramach, g'bhaidh,
Bu chian le each gair am buillean.
6.
Bu mhinig telne d'an armaibh,
'S cothar garbh d'an cneasa geala ;
Chuai' an sleaghan righne bhearnadh,
'S an sgiathan gu I'ar a ghearadh.
7.
Thuit Cairill caoin, calma, ceanail.
Gun anail fui'n Chuinne-chrctha :
'S beudach, baolach, borb am buille,
Leag an curaidh sa chruai' chomhrag.
