Cumha do fhear CHILLE MOIRE; le Alasdair Mac Calum bhann an Laudailsa Mhorairne.

DHfhalbh min gu sunndach, sunndach,
Ghabhail cunntas Chille Moire;
S cha do chuimhnich mi air bas,
An fhir gun sgath a chite soilleir:
Nuair a rainig mi an larach,
San t-aite babhaist duinn coinneadh;
Cha deachaidh mi steach do dsheomar,
Cha dleig mfheoil dhomh dhol ad sheallamh.

Chunnaic mi gur bron bu cheol doibh,
Ghabh mi seol as rinn mi pilleadh;
S thug min sgriob ud don tigh osda,
Ghabhail oran do na gillean;
Gar a bheil mi pailt do storas,
S cridheil dholainn cupall ghinidh,
Air chumhnantas gum faicinn beo thu,
Seach am bron tha air do chinne.

Fear mor rioghail, ’s e don fhior-fhuil,
S mor dar dith thun am bhi togail,


[123] Am feachd do dhuthcha dh aithnicht air thus thu,
Sa choisneadh cliuth aig na fhuair thu sheallamh;
S math thigeadh cotas dag air oradh,
S breacan boidheach an cuaich loinneil;
Cha do chuir e uigh am botainn,
Fear garbh comhnards e gun choirair.

S mor an iondrain as a dhuthaich,
Am fear mor chiuiteach dhfhas gu maiseach;
Dhearbh thu chuis uds cha bu chubair,
Bheireadh cuis diot ri am glacaidh;
Bha thu siobhalta ri maighdinn,
S bha thud shaighdeir ri uchd gaisgidh;
S cha bu chearbach thu fo t-armachd,
N am bhi bhi seanchas ri luchd chasag.

Nis on thainig feachd na truaighe,
S olc a bhuaidh tha air ar cinneach;
S tric an sgriob so a bheul uaighe,
Air arn uaislean, tha iad diomain;
Bu cheannard tuath thu, ’s dhaoine truagha,
Cho mathsa bhan taobh tuath don lingidh;
An thug uainn thu, cha bu chruaidh air,
Oighre buan a chuir a t-ionad.

Mo thruaighe do mhathairs fad a laithean,
Guidhe a bhais a thighn da sireadh,
Chaill i a sugradhsa ceol gaire,
Gu la bhrath cha dean e pilleadh;
Cuis a chraidh i, laogh a h-ara,
Bhi ga charadh aig na gillean;
N ciste dhionaich, fo bhrat sìoda,
Beul na firinn fear gun choire.

Mur biodh tu baidheil, iochdar, cairdeil,
Theireadh cach gun robh sud coireach;


[124]San fhuil uasal asn do ghluais thu,
S gam bu dualchas a bhi soilleir;
S mo is luath leam, dhfhalaich uaigh thu,
Fhir bha suairce ri daoin eile;
Do cheile bhroin na banntraich oig,
S i cumail seol air do chuid cloinne.

Bfhiach dhi fhein sud, bur a ceile,
Ceann na ceillesan robhn gliocas;
Bu ghuala threun thu ri am feuma,
S goirt an t-eug thug uainn a nis thu;
On dhfhalbh bata, leat thair saile,
Tha i craiteachs bidh im feasd ann;
Ga dchuir air tir an Leitir Shiuna,
Farn robh do dhuthchass bur na fleasgaich.

Na fir ura bha neo sgathach,
Beur nabhaistn am an fheasgair;
Gillean lamh ruibh, aobhar ghaire,
Greis air thaileasg ga chur seachad:
Sior ol fiona as na piosan,
Aig fir ur nam piobs nam bratach;
Don fhuil uasail, sioghail, rhuairce,
Dam bu dual bhi annsan Apuinn.

An saoghal breugach, cha neil feum ann,
S mairg nach leughadh e le gliocas,
Ma bhios sibh steidheil, na tugabh geill da
Leigibh leic anns na biodh meas deth;
Nith no feudail na gabhadh speis deth,
Ur coinnseas fein na biodh garn ithe;
Gluaiseadh mid o cheim gu ceim,
S ni e feum ged threig e nis sinn.
