Cameron, Rev. Hector (ed.), Na Bàird Thirisdeach, The Tiree Association, 1932, by Gilleasbuig MacPhail, p 4:
‘Gu robh do chàirdean, a Chailein,
Urramach ’s gach taobh r’an leanachd,
O Dhun-da-Ramh, ’s Loch nan Eala
’S o thur Mhic Cailein nan ceudan
Page 8
‘Bha Loch-nan-Eala air thus leibh, agus Diuc Earraghaidheal
Sibh do’n churn cheart cho dileas ‘s a tha’n ince do’n phaipeir.’
