Cumha Ghilleasbuig Achaladair (1761) le Donnchadh Bàn Mac an t-Saoir (1724-1812), sr. 1189-96

‘S e là Phealan-Hùsain

A rinn an diùbhail gu h-ath-ghoirid,

‘Nuair a thuit an comanndair

A b’ aird air na fearaibh ud,

Air a’ phiocaid a bha thu,

Os cionn chàich fhuair thu barantas.

Ann an onair na rìoghachd,

‘S an rìgh fhad ‘s bu mhaireann thu.

Elegy for Archibald Campbell of Achallader by Duncan Bàn MacIntyre (1724-1812), ls. 1189-96 (MacLeod, 1975)

 

"’Tis the day of the Battle of Vellinghausen

That quickly brought the calamity,

When the commander fell

Who stood highest above yon men,

On picket you were,

Above all you received commission.

To the honour of the Kingdom,

And the King as long as ye lived.”
