Trom

by Victoria NicÌomhair

Nuair a bhios cùisean duilich
is nach fhaic thu ach an ceò,
còmhdaichidh mi thu mar reul-sholas
a’ seacadh is a’ glanadh gach deòir

Nuair a bhios d’ anail trom,
gach cnead gad mhùigeadh teann,
cuiridh mi thugad caladh ciùin
gus sèimheachadh do smuain

Giùlainidh mi do dhuighleadasan,
giùlainidh mi do dhuibhre,
cuiridh mi iad fom sholais shocair
gus an nochd rathad soilleir ùr.
