Is scíth mo chrob ón scríbinn (Author: [unknown])
p.70
My hand is weary with writing
Colum Cille cecinit
- Is scíth mo chrob ón scríbainn;
ní dígainn mo glés géroll;
sceithid mo phenn gulban cáelda
dig n-dáelda do dub glégorm.
- Bruinnid srúaim n-ecna n-dedairn
as mo láim degduinn desmais;
doirtid a dig for duilinn
do dub in chuilinn chnesglais.
- Sínim mo phenn m-bec m-bráenach
tar áenach lebar lígoll
gan scor, fri selba ségann,
dían scíth mo chrob ón scríbonn.
