•Gur lionmhor lamh theoma
Aig Eoghann Loch-iall,
Fir cholganda, bhorganda,
'S oirdheirce gniomh,
lad mar thuilbheum air chorra-ghleus
'S air chon-fliadh. ro dhian
'Si mo dhuilse 'n am rusgadh
Nach diult sibh dol sios.
Clann-Mhuirich nach soradli
A chonspairn ud ial,
Dream fhuilteach gun mhor-chuis
Dha'n coir a bhi fial,
'Gur gaÌBgeil fior-sheolta,
Ar mor thionail chiad,
Ni sibh spoltadh air feolach
A stroiceadh fo 'n ian.
Tha Granndaich mar b' abhaist
Mu bliraidb uisge Spe,
Fir laidir ro-dhaicheil
Theid dan anns an streup,
Nach iarr cairdeas no fabhar
Air namhaid fo'n ghrein,
'S i n-ur làmhach a dh' fhagas
Fuil bhlàth air an fheiir.
Tha Frisealaich ainmeil
Aig seanachaibh nan crioch,
Fir gharbha ro chalma,
'Ur fearg cha bu shi ;
Tha Catanaich foirmeil
Si 'n armachd am miann,
'An cath gairbheach le 'r n-armaibh
A dhearbh sibh 'ur gniomh.
