50 AN T-EILEANACH.
Cha do clli' Ò1 a h-aon na mhill e,
'S cha deanadh-maid mi-nihodh air neach,
Ach na bhlàthaicheadh an inntinn,
'S na bha cinnteach rud thoirt aisd'.
Ma bha dad innt'.
Dh' eirich sinn, 's cha b' e air cabhag,
Chuir gu 'n d' tharruinn sinn cho grad,
Ach a chionn nach b' àill leinn fuireachd
€rus an deant' ar cur a mach.
Cha robh sinn idir sgith do 'n chaithream,
'S moran aig gach neach ri 'ràdh,
'S los gu faigheadh-maid an còrr dheth,
Sheas na seoid ud air an t-sràid
'Toirt greis ma seach.
'S ionia sean-fhacal 'us ursgeul
A hibhradh le duine glic,
Bh' aig gach fear dhiu ri thoirt seachad
Mu 'd do dhealaich sinn à sud,
Ranntachd aosmhor anns a' Ghàidhlig,
Cainnt nam hkrd a bh' ann o chian,
Ainmichte air ùghdar àraidh, —
'S mòran nach tuirt pàirt dhiubh riamh,
'S bu choir a chleith.
An sin sgaoil sinn gu dol dachaidh
'S ghabh gach fear a rathad fhein,
Gu robh mise ann am shiubhal
Leis a' bhruthach, 's mi 'n am leuni,
Sheall mi 'n t-uaireadair 's a' nihionaid
