A SPECIMEN OF THE
Plaofga, o afijn na h'cicha,
Ghluais Cathmor fa' chran fein.
Chuinic c n' Ci bu tla.
Air carric Lubhair nan fliabh :
Dearg reul, a fealla fios, —
Meafc liubhal a trom chiabh.
CiA 'ta roi Oicha gu Cathmor
An cear-amlair aflin fein ?
Am bail fios duit, air k'l na ncruai-bheum ?
Cia ufla, mhic dubhra nan fpeur ?
Na flies u, am fionas an Ri,
Do chaol-thannais, on n' am o-fliean ;
Na nguth u, o neoil nam fras,
Le cunairt Erin na ncolg fean ?
Ni mfear fiubhail dubhra mi-f hein,
Ni nguth mi, o neol, na cruaim :
Ach ta m' f hocul, le cunairt na h' Erin.
An cualas duit coppan na fuaim ?
Ni ntais e, Ri Atha nan fruth,
A thaomas an f huaim air oicha.
