Air an gCroidhe-Brugha.

A pheacuig anacrach 'ta ad' Spaidire riamh air fán
O Righe na nAingiolaibh is tu malluighthe fe fhiach is chain,
Mara gcasa tu le aithreachus ceart air Dhia na ngras,
Beig t'anam bocht go sior damanta ameasg Diabhail gan spás.

II.
An spás san a fuair tu go di an uair seo o Righ na Naomh,
Nior chuiris suim ann go rugag tinn ort 's a' bas ad' thaobh;
'Se mo thuairim-si ma beirthar uainn mar atáir ad' mheinn,
Go mbeith t'anam shios anifrionn iochtarach ad' chradha le peinn.

III.
Peinn mhor loisgitheach sior-dhocharach bheig at' dheigh gach trath
'Measg Diabhail dhamanta 'stu leo ceanguilte 'na gcliar go brath,
Mar' ndeinfir aithreachus fior-bheannuighthe an amm an ghadh,
Do ghlanfe o gach peaca thu 's a bheith le Criosd a ngradh.

IV.
Chum gradh Iosa bhei'd Chroidhe-si sul sinfar tu treith go fann,

Anaigha dlidhe an Righ sin fuair bas Dia hAoine faoi phein da dhream.

<L 32>

Do chionnta dhearmad ma bhion aithreachus ad' chroidhe led' éachd,
Is comhairle ghlaca 'nios 'ta air mhaithe leat, dein deimhin dom' sgéal,
Chum tu sheachna air an mbreith dhamanta, 's air chliar na ndaol.

VI.
Na diabhail dhúbha san dobhi ad stiura's ad tharuint ó Dhia,
Tabhairfid cúl duit ma ni'r mo chomairle is ní chasuid nibhus siadh,
Ma ghlacuir bron ceart 'dtaobh an chúrsa do leanuis gan chial,
Tabhairt gach diultamh do Righ na gcomhachta 'sa brise' riaghail.

VII.
'Se riaghail cheapaim duit le carthanacht ad shaora' dtrath,
O'n mbreith dhamanta thoill t'anam bocht a bpeinn go brath,
Glaodhaig le aithreachus air Dhia chabharthach tre bhrighe na ngras,
Tfhiacha mhaitheamh duit, is iad do dhearmad le truadh dod chas.

VIII.
Air an gcas ceadhna, bioch dortuidhe geur-fhliuch leat 'nuas na ndeoir,
'S le doilis treunmhar guig chum aonmhic, anios ort foir,
'S do pheacuidhe eachtach, le fuil a chreuchta, do nighe gan smol.
Dod t'anam daor-bhocht, ata go treith-lag, faoi chiach go d'reoil.

<L 33>

Ce d'reoil ata sé le mead ghrain-bheart, 's le baois na hoig'
Tre thora paise Iosa an tslainte aris dogheobhaig,
Ma bhion tu casmhar ad' chroidhe go craibhtheach tred' chionnta mor,
'S gan casa choidhche air aon droch-ghnio'rtha na flathais gheobhair.

 X.
Deora aithreachuis 'siad do ghlanfe tu o smoit is cheo,
Is run leasuighthe bioch go daingion ceart ad' chroidhe go deo,
Gearán fadthuirseach dein le Sagart maith, le fuaith is bron,
Air gach mallathachd riauk dar chleachtuis-se a lionta'n Leoin.

Air an bhFoisdin

I.
Beith Leoin mhor' Ithfrinn 'nios air criocha shios, is sgreucha siad,
'Nuair dheunfir sgeithchun air do chammchlaonta mar dhearnuis iad,
Is tabharfe'n t-aon Mhac ansan ort saor-bhreith, le gradh go fial,
Air an am gceadna 'na sgaoilfe'n Chleir tu o lion an Diabhail.

II.
Na diabail do mheall tu 's do chaoch gach am tu le aicid bhreun,
Beid air baillichrith teithe feasta uait go háit na bpian,
'Nuair 'neosfir cealguibh do chroidhe calcuighthe don chleir mar Liadh,
Sgaoilfidh t'anam bocht od' tualach marbhthach, tre chomhachta Dhia.

<L 34>
III.
Air Dhia beigh áthas ma 'niosir lancheart gach gníomh dod' shaodhal,
'S gach slidhe dá ndearnuis a dhlidhe do bhearn' led' thoil gan chéil.
Ná ceil tre naire aon locht ce granúil dod' bhearta cle,
Is beith tu pairteach le Naoimh a n-airde tre bheannacht De.

IV.
Dia na nAingiolaibh tabhairfidh maitheamh duit ad' chionnta baois,
Ma bhidhir air aigne do chúl do chasa leo go brath aris;
Gloire Pharathais gheobhair go gradamach ma ní'r go fíor,
Aithridhe thaithniomhach 'ghlanfe t'anam duit o smoit go sior.

V.
Bi 'sior-mhareanna air do bheatha 'nios, is sgeith a dtrath,
Do mhor-mhallathachd is do sgannail riamh do'n saodhal gan sgaith,
Na bioch mearathal air do theanga-sa a dtaobh do cháis
Aig deanadh dearmuid dod' chamm-bhearta clis ba threun a' fás.

VI.
An fás farsing sin bhi ad' threasguirt riamh mar phrey 'ge Diabhail,
Strac go daingion e od' chroidh calcuighthe le raoba stial;
Gealaim feasta dhuit, ma bhi'r taithniomhach, ad taithridheach dhian,
Go bhfaigha tu Parthas o Riogh na nAing'luibh faoi reim gan phian.

Air an Leorghniomh
I.
O'n bpian so ad' chradha 'nios ma thagair slan uaig tar éis gach caith,

Dein leorghniomh duthrach le Dia 's led' chomhairsain ad' chlaonta leag,
Faoi chesa'n namhuid thu, a bpeaca an mhuinlig tred' threithe lag.

II.
Ce lag t'acfuin-si chum fior-cheartachus do dheana 'gcoir,
Le Righ na nAing'luibh dofuair masla uait ad' shaodhal go mor,
Deithchiol  maitheasa 'comhad na n-atheanta gan bheim gach lo,
Dein go carthanach is aoibhneas Pharthais dogheobhir go deo.

III.
Go deo bi riaghalta's le h-umhluidheacht dhiadha bi cneasda seimh,
Ad' ghlor bioch cial cheart le múinteachd beasa bainte ad' sgeimh,
'S gach maith da bhfiadfir le gradh do'n Tighearna, dein e led' shaodhal,
'S dod' namhuid mheillteach do chreach go deimhin tu, ná tabhair geill.

IV.
Le geill do Iosa, 's da dhlighe 'ta naoimtha tabhair sasamh coir,
A gclu gach aon neach dar rin tu raoba tre mhalis mhor,
'Sa gcuid ma thoguis dein diol go feorlin le glaineacht meoin,
No Righ na gloire ní thaibhairfe sodha dhuit astig 'na dhun
(=mansion).

V.
Dun na beannuidhtheachd, luachd na carthanachd 'se gheoibhir mar phádha,
Leorghníomh taithniomhach do reir t'acfuinne, ma ni'r le gradha,
Le Dia gan dearmad d'fhoidhne fada leat, ad' dhaol air fan,
'S tu go maslathach 'tabhairt gach scannail uait do'n saodhal iomlan.

<L 36>
VI.
Go h-iomlán bi ceart led' chomharsa air fad ad' ghniomh 'sad' mhein,
Is tabhair doibh le searc gach deigh-shampla maith da bhfiadfir fein,
Is na h-aitheanta beacht, coimead iad le gean do Righ na Naomh,
Is mar aithridheach glan bi go croidhe-bhrughach geal, faoi smacht go seimh.

An Cheud Aithne

'Pheacuig bhocht anacrach, mhaslathach, bhéal-mheillteach
Ma's mian leat casa 'nios le aithreachus geur deimhneach.
Air Righe na nAingil do cheanuig tu go daor foidhneach,
Tabhair fa ndeara na h-aitheanta so go leir roinnteach.

Ar chreidis a nDia go glan,
Ar thugais go ceart do gean,
'Raibh do dhochus ann a mhaith
'Nuair do chuir do namhuid ort caith,
'Bhfuair tu eolus air gach staid.
Do bhain le n-a dhlidhe air fad;
Is ar leanuis I go beacht,
Gan tu bhrise tre n-a reacht?

II.
Ann roinnt dod' bheatha ar tharcuisne tu Dia glormhar,
Ná an Naoimh bheannuighthe 'ta 'bParthas go binn ceolmhar;
Ar pheaca tu an-aghaidh aitheanta tre anndochus,
Go bhfaghfadh maithfecus gan aithreachus fior-chontais?
Ar ghradhaig tu aon nidhe tar Dhia,
Dothug beatha dhuit is biadh,
Do cheanuig tu go dian,
Le n-a bhas a' fulang pian;
'Bhfuair tu eolus air a Riaghail,
Chum go mbainfádh aiste cial,
No ar sheunais I le bréag,
Is t'anam do chur a ndéag?

III.
Contas taithniomhach 'vfuil agad air an dlidhe naomhtha,
'A  rabhuis air mearathal gan aithne an nidhe ceadhna,
Ar chain tu an Eagluis go maslathach droch-mheineach,

<L 38>
Ná lucht creidimh fos go dibhfeirgeach droch-bheusach?
Ar chosg tu riamh o n-a leas,
Aon neach tre mhalis na cleas,
Ar thug tu geille go leasg,
Do chreidimh fallsa ná seasg,
Do lucht piseoga gan raith,
No lucht athruidhe go leamh,
'Ta fe mhalachtuidhe o Neamh?

IV.
Led' bheusadh ar bhrisis go minic an dlighe naomtha,
Le geille thabhairt do lucht feasa no cleas saobhadh,
Ar thug tu aithis fos riamh do thoil Dhia led' bhreithar,
A dtaobh aindeise is pian bheith a ndiagh do shaothair.
Do thaibhreadh a' dtugais geill
Go dtiocfidh nuadh as san sgeal,
'Rin tu neamhshuim riamh ad' Rédh,

'Raibh tu meata, lag ná claon,
Aig seunadh do chreidimh fein,
No ar mhuin tu nos ná beas
Bheich a' masludha Chriosd tar eis?

An Dara Aithne
Na Tabhair Ainim De gan Adhbhar.

I.
Sin saothar taitniomhach ainim Dé do ghradha a gceart,
Is baochus beannuighthe do thabhairt do ad' lan-neart;
Feuch-si is mareanuig ar chleachtais le naomhthacht ghlan,
E adhra 's do mholla, folas do gach aon sort clan?
Machtnuig aris 'nios tamal,

<L 39>
Ar dhearbhuidhis riamh le sgannail,
An Trinoid naomtha a bhfearg,
No ainim Iosa gan mhairg,
No aon do na tri phearsa,
Ar thugais do aon mhasla,
No'n chrois cheusda ar spalpais,
Aig tabhairt do'n Aon Mhac athais?

II.

Le clan na mallathachd ar mhasla tu Mathair De,
Aig spalpa 'h-ainim go sgannalach le cach a' plé;

Ar thug tu Parthas go neamheaglach gan ghradha gan tseun,
Do thoill damuint duit go sgalluideach dod' chradha le pein?

Ar thug tu riamh moide leabhair,
Le paisiun no as do mheabhair,
No ar bhris tu tre aon cheann,
Dobhi ceart do reir dlidhe mionn;
Ar bhris tu ad' shaodhal aon amm,
Do ghealuint do Dhia go cam,
No ar bhris tu fos le feall,
An breathar dothug tu a ngeal?

III.
Le pein na h-andeise, na aon chuis eile gan chiall,
Ar thug tu aon mhoidhe 'bhfearg an t'anam suas do'n Diabhal;
Le firine ar chleachtais bheith 'spalpa na mionn dian,
Na le breaga scannail' aig tuilleamh duit lan-chuid pian?

Ar rin tu riamh easgaine,
Air bheathaigheach na air dhuine,
Ar chleachtais aon sort chuige,
Tre mhire na tre laige;
No ar eisd tu le mionna,
Da spalpa as do choinne,
Gan cosg do chur go h-uile,
Res an te bhi ar buile?

<L 40>
IV.
Pian thar phianta bheig ad chiapa is go brath ad' dhoigh,
'Nifrionn damanta shios go h-anacrach 'dteinnte teodh,
Gan mion-sgrúda dheanadh 'nduthracht air do mhoide mor,
Is gach easgaine rin do theanga-sa chur 'na gcomhar.
Ar bhrosduighis aon neach ad' shaodhal,
Chum deimhin do dheanadh air sgeul,
Aon sort miona thabhairt go saor,
Thug tusa is e fein daor,
Na le maga suilt gan cheil
'Mbioch easgaine ann do bheul,
Mionna mor na beg air pledh,
Re firine na re cledh?

Mar a ndearrnais dorin tu bearna air dhlighe na vfeart;
Ar chaill tu Aifrion tre'd spaidaireacht is geill go lag
Do'n Diabhal malluighthe rin treasguirt ort, is faon tu leag?
Ar choimead tu le onoir

Le Saoire sosa, do thoill tu losga geur faoi phian.

<L 41>
Cuardaigh 'nios tu fein go ceart,
Ta-bhair contas ann gach beart,
A' ndearnais obair gan chead,

Ca mheid uair bhris tu an t-achd,
Is faid na redh bhis 'na chleachd,
'Sa' sgannail fos tríd sin lean,
Os comhair chach don uile chlan?

III.

An lá beannuighthe sin do eiseirigh Iosa o bhas.
Cuardaigh fos tu fein le firine,
Mar pheacuidhis gach la saoire,
'Maslugha De 'gcraos 'sa ndiomas,
'San la naomhtha fed' dhímheas;
'Sgach nidhe riamh rin tu micheart,
'Nagha'n lae seo, le mead díth-bheart

O'd toige go ceann t'aoise.

IV.
Bas gan beatha do thoill t'anam is é bheith a bpein,
Gach uair rinis an tsaoire bhrise, 'sgan náire ort fein.
'Nios ma chasair air Righ na nAingil le aithridhe gheur,
Do choinsias ceartaig le fior-mhachtnamh, tred' locht go leir.
Le sult saodhalta na le greann,
Le leisgeamhlacht is neamh-fhonn,
Le culchaint throm chlaoin is chamm,
Le gairsgeamhlacht bhreun gach amm,
Le h-easguine od' bheul mionn
Na fos le craos óil air leann,
Ma bhris tu an tsaoire ad' dhall,
Dorin tu air t'anam feall.

Gach am thugais toil ar dtuis

Air shon nár ghoid tu an lón,
Dorin tu air t'anam leon.

Gan mheas gan chlu ná gan reim
Faoi thriobloid agus chruadhcheim.

A' rin tu cleachta gach bliadhain dod' bheatha, 'nfhaid is siadh,
Do pheacaidhe 'ghlana le aithridhe chneasta o gach ciach,
Dobhi ad' threasguirt is tu mar scraiste (=sluggard) baidhte 'vfiach?

Mar spaidire mor gan chial,
Ar ghlac tu comhairle an diabhail,
Gan foisidin uair sa mbliadhain,
Do dheana le doilghios dian;
Bhí malacht mar chain d' dhiadh
Ma bhi tu gan ghreann air Dia,
Is tu 'bhrise tre n-a Riaghail,
Go h-ithfrionn doimhin sios aig trial?

IV.
Fiacha an anama 'se's measa dhuit 'nios gan diol,

Ma rin tu so le calaois
Le neamhshuim fos no malis

Comhna beathuighthe thabhairt go fearamhuil doibh go h-eug,
'Nait ar bainag diobh 'ta 'ge Feallachoin fos gan bhreag.

O'n gCleir ma choimead tu 'gceart,
Aon Fheile riamh d'imig thart,
Gan diol leo do reir an Acht
Do pheacuidhis 'naghadh De 'sa Rachd,
Do robail tu iad as rath,
Ma dhiultuighis ortha aon mhaith
'Stu fa dhualgas mar gach neach,
Comhna leo tred' shaodhal amach.

VI.
Gan bhreag gan amhras, is olc an sampla clann cheart De,
Beith 'deanadh Postaidhe an Charghis, bronach deirim é.
An Advent Iosa, is olc aris é 'measg na nGaodhail,
'Ta peaca's mi-rath 'na dhiagh is dioghaltas, cain is baodhal.

'Ta cosg eile fos 'san dlidhe
Gan ceangal posa 'n-aon tslidhe,
Le gaodhal fola air aon taoibh,

Ná gan fhios, gan chead coir fior
Mar orduigheas an Eaglais sior;
Ma rin tu 'leitheid ad' shaoidhal

Air a bhfeicim mar a gheillid do gach baois go deo,
'Sdo pheaca'n Diomais tharaing dioghaltas go daor 'na gcoir,
Is malacht Iosa air na milte fe phein go mor.

'Rabhais cionntach a bpeaca'n Uaibhair,

Le meas, poimp, ná le linn buadh,
'Rin tu do mhaith fein do luadh,
Raibh do ghradh ort fein anmhor,
No ar chain tu cach, monuar!
Ar eisdis go samh ad' chluais.
Le mola do chail fein suas?

II.
Mar an deithmhadh Aithne do Athanta De, a seadh ata an tsaint.

Is mor an mhalathachd riamh le n-aithris Craos le h-ol,

Mar ba thaithniomh leat mead a n-anacra's luighead a reim,
Bhi tu calcaighthe, cruaig sa pheaca so, tre gach ceim,

Ar mhaith leat mead neach bheith go fann
Is e bheith 'na chuid go gann,
Na droch-mheas do fhaighail aon amm,
Gibe direach, fior no camm,
Ar ghoill se ort é bheith teann,
Iona shliocht, 'na sheun, 'na ghreann,
No 'na chlu, 'na chail, 'na fheabhas,
Na 'cur a dhroch-thásg a' rabhuis.

VII.
Tre cheim gach peaca a seadh thagan neamh-shuim a nDia,
'Stre mhead na leisge sin deire le gach aon mhaith liagh (= physician),
Ma bhis ad' bheatha mar spaidire lag baoth gan chial,
Toig suas 'nois t'aigne, tabh'r t'anam leat saor ó'n Diabhal.

Ar leig tu dhiot seirbhis De,
Le neamhfhonn aon am dod' rae,
'Ndearnais faillidhe ann do shaodhal,
A ndlighe Chriosd, a mbrigh 'sa gceill.
Do chur a gcrich, caoin, ceart, seimh,
'Nobair Iosa, Righ na Naomh;
Tre gach leisge bhi ort féin,
'Gcuis do leasa thoill tu pein.

N.B.
Is eigin duit tu fein do sgruda a dtaobh gach ocaid peaca dothugais uait
riamh do dhaoine eile, is a lorg diot feins ca mhead duine bhi 'lathir le linn

Na feuch uirthe le nimh do shuil,

X.
Seachun an dream bhion gan laga,

Is olc é 'nglor mar short comhrádha,
Tagan 'na dheoig go leor mí-adha.

XI.
Seachuin aon ghreann bheich peacamhlach,
Na fos aon tslidhe mhi-bhanumhlach,
Bion lionta'n Diabhail sgartha choidhche,
Chum sinn threasguirt 'gcaith na h-oidhche.

XII.
Seachuin gach guag mar fheillicán,
Eadrom suarach mar mhor-mhudan,
Ni tu dob fhearr leo ná do short,
Ach duine rabach lan do sport.

<L 57>

Bioch do bheatha gan locht gan bheim,
Is gheobh'r Iosa taoibh leis reim.

XIV.

Ad' stiurugha ceart ad' leas go brath,
Glac go minic air staid na ngrás
Corp geal Iosa gan moran spas.

XV.
Bi go dúbhach gach aimsir Aifrinn,
'Dtaobh do pheacuidhe thoill duit Ithfrionn,
Smuain gurbe Iosa tre 'na Pháis,
Shaor aris tu ó shaoid an bháis.

XVI.
Tabh'r chum contais 'ndeire gach lae,
Ar pheacuidhis an la san 'naghadh De,
Ma fhaighir locht a gcoine na dlidhe,
Dein 'na thaobh san gol agus caoidhe.

XVII.
Lean an riaghail seo do lean gach Naomh,
Lean go críoch i go caoin glan seimh,
Is beanacht De ghil 'gheobhair go fior,
Air feadh do shaodhail 'sair Neamh go sior.
