DUAN NA MUTHAIRN [9]

RUNE OF THE 'MUTHAIRN'

p. 28

p. 29

A RIGH na gile,
A Righ na greine,
A Righ na rinne,
A Righ na reula,
A Righ na cruinne,
A Righ na speura,
Is aluinn do ghnuis,
A lub eibhinn.

Da lub shioda
Shios ri d’ leasraich
Mhinich, chraicich;
Usgannan buidhe
Agus dolach
As gach sath dhiubh

THOU King of the moon,
Thou King of the sun,
Thou King of the planets,
Thou King of the stars,
Thou King of the globe,
Thou King of the sky,
Oh! lovely Thy countenance,
Thou beauteous Beam.

Two loops of silk
Down by thy limbs,
Smooth-skinned;
Yellow jewels
And a handful
Out of every stock of them.
