56 AN T-EILEANACH.
Tha moran dhibh 's clia 'n e cion-teagaisg,
'Ni seirbhis-eagail mar an tràill,
Do Kigh nam feart.
Acli seall thu 'm fear ud, 's faic an gill ud,
Sud agad e tigliin a nios,
Da thaobh na sràide 's a teis meadhoin,
Mur gii 'm biodh e 'dol troimh 'n ruidlil'
Thug e ionnsuidh le mor spairn
Gus a lamhan 'chuir mu 'n phosd',
Cha deach leis, 's a sios a tha e
Air an t-sràid 'us e 'n a chlod,
Ged 's cruaidh an leac.
Seall thu nis e, fiach nach gleusd e,
Mar a dh' èireas e ri taic,
Tha cheann cho trom ri cloicli mhuilinn,
Uillt 's iad uile mar an gad,
Faic an dràsd mar streap e suas ris,
'S beag nach d' fhuair e air a bhonn,
O, mo thruaighe ! chaill e 'm posda
'Us tha 'n a ghnog am beul a' chlous,
'S e 'cuir a mach.
Sin fear eile nuas an t-sràid,
Cha 'n 'eil dad ceàrr air ann an doigh,
Ràinig e 'm fear 'tha 'n a shineadh.
Chrom e sios, cha b' ann le pbig,
Saoilidh tusa gur e bhràthair
A th' as a chioun le cànran bròin,
Tha moran dhibh 's clia 'n e cion-teagaisg,
'Ni seirbhis-eagail mar an tràill,
Do Kigh nam feart.
