Uaibhreach a nochd na coilich ghiuthais
Proud tonight the pine cocks
a’ gairm air mullach Cnoc an Rà,
crowing on the top of Cnoc an Ra,
dìreach an druim ris a’ ghealaich –
straight their backs in the moonlight –
chan iadsan coille mo ghràidh.
they are not the wood I love.
Sorley MacLean, “Hallaig” (1952)
