l.)i do l)lic;itir, a Mhoirc Mluiiylidcaun,
'S gur gile do mhac na 'gliriaii ;
Rugadh am mac 'an aois 'Atliar,
Oighre Fhlathauais g'ar dion.
1 shall conclude by giving you one more Rami \yy Sile na
Beir mo shoiridli leis an ti,
Blia caitheamh na sligh' air a li-aineol
Ged a dli' fliag iad as an deigii sinn,
Cha 'n fliios nach ciginn duinn an leanachd,
Ged fliogair iad sinn as an riglieachd,
'S suarach an dith air a Pliap e
Cha ghluais sid an Eaglais dhaingeann
Dh' fhag mo Righ air carraig laidir.
Cha dean geataichean ifrinn,
Na idir cumhachdan dhaoine ;
Car a chur dhith as a laraich,
Clachairean cha d' fhag cho faoin i.
Rinn iad ballaichean de d' cholluinn,
\S rinn iad uinneagan de d' chreuchdan ;
'S ann de d' liheul a rinn iad dorus,
'S do dha shuil na 'n solus gle gheal.
Rinn iad sgliata de d' chrun-dreathain,
Agus staidhir de d' chrann-ceiisda ;
Rinn iad le traisg 'us le urnaigh,
'Teannachadh gu dluth ri cheile ;
Bha Moire, Bhaintigliearn' air a h-ui*lar,
DIl fliuirneisich an da Ostal deug i,
Aig na fhuair iad rithe 'shaothair ;
Fad an saoghail gus an d' eug iad.
Cheangail iad a chreud mu'n cuairt di
Mu 'm fuasgladli i as a cheile ;
Bha seachd glasan air a h-ursainn,
'Sa h-iuchraichean aig luchd-gleuta ;
Bha seachd glasan air a h-ursainn,
'S a h-iuchraichean aig luchd-gleuta ;
Comas a dunadh 's a fosgladh,
Dh' fhag na h-Ostail sud mar oighreachd.
