Grief and pain are all I know
A D E
My heart is sore my tears will flow
A D A
We saw him go an buachaill beo

No word we know of him och?in
A proud young son of several year
A high born son Of gentle mean
A fiery blade engaged to me
It break the brave a still naw feel
I'll sing his praise as sweet harps play
And proudly toast his noble fame
Whose spirit and with mind aflame
Salvation strength and length of days
