Sgeul ri aithris air àm o aois.
A chaoin aiteil, gun t'fhaicinn a chaoidh,
Lùbadh cluaran mu Lora nan sian;
Thu air astar an caol-ghleann na gaoith,
C'uime thréig thu mo chluasa co dian?
Cha chluinnear gairm nan liath shruth ard;
No guth clarsaich o charn nan gas.
Mhalmhina nan teud, thig gu d' bhard,
Till anam do bhaird air ais;
Till m'anam, a làmh-gheal, dhomh féin.
Mi coimhead air Lochlin nan sonn,
Ciar uisge Uthorno nan tonn;
O'n iar-chuan a' tearnadh mo righ;
'S muir bheucach fo ghaoith a' strì;
'S neo-lìonor glan òigrigh nam beann
Tìr choigrich a' togail fo'n ceann.
Ghairm Starno o Loduinn fear faoin,
'Chuireadh Fhionnghail gu cuirm nam fleagh;
