Càraid
Gach rud an alt an aomadh a’ chuain
Agus, na dhèidh sin, àraid:
Air fàire, na siùil
‘S na seòladairean a’ seòladh a rèir an iùil;
Air taobh an fhuaraidh, ceann-ròin
A’ togail ceann
Mar na ròin an taobh thall a’ chaoil,
Ri blianadh air feadh Eilein Mhaoil.
Fèath-nan-eun ‘s na h-eòin
A’ biathadh air bhàrr nam beann
Fon chuan gun ghàir gun gheum,
Cho rèidh ri blàr; leumadair na leum
Is, air a’ chlàr-uachdair, càraid,
Bodach is cailleach nan cadal-suain.
