Unknown Lochaber Bards. 215
'So 'n turns 'tluij^ i dh-Eirinn,
A (111 'fhug f(im cheile cadail mi,
Mo climobh tha 'n d^igli a lusgadli
Gun snothach iir gun niheangain oirr'.
Gur troni, tr:)ni, &c.
I could not trace tlio author of the following song oitlior,
liut it has a lino swing about it when sung by a chorus of hoarty
Highlanders, waving their pocket handkerchiefs in the orthodox
fashion. When the Canierons of Uruini-na-Saille got too numerous
to remain there with comfort, they hived off to Sunart, and
the chieftain of the party that removed took up iiis abode at
Kintrh.. where they became known as Sliochd Iain duibh Cheannti'ii.
This song must have been composed on a gentleman of that
family.
Oh hi, hog i o
Ho ro no ho ro gheallaidh
Oh hi, hog i o
Fhir a dhireiis a' ghuallain
Giullain uamsa mile beannachd,
Oh hi, &c.
Thoir mo shoraidh gu Ceann-tri
Far bheil faileatlh a' bharraich,
Oh hi, &c.
Far am bheil doireachan dliitha
'Us cnothan a' liibadh gach meangain,
Ho hi, &c.
Far am bi a' nihil 's an t-S^mhradh
'Sileadh bho gach crann do'n darach.
Ho hi hog i o
Far am ])i 'n crodh-laoigh 's a' bhairich
Tighinn gu pairceannan a' bhainne.
Ho hi &c.
A dh' ionnsaidh talla nan uaislean
Ga 'm bu dual bhi 'n Druim-na-Saille
Ho hi &c.
Ach Iain oig 'ic Iain 'ic Shoumais
Thug tlni air na c6udan barrachd,
Ho hi &c.
