Tha a' chuibhreann as motha den bh脿rdachd a thagh agus a dh'aithris D貌mhnall E脿irdsidh D貌mhnallach a' tighinn bhon t-siathamh chun ochdamh linn deug. Cluinnidh sinn rannan bho B'annsa Cadal air Fraoch a rinn An Ciaran Mabach ( Gilleasbaig D貌mhnallach ), An Duanag Ullamh a tha gun urra, Bothan 脌irigh am Br脿igh Raineach a tha cuideachd gun urra, A' L脿ir Dhonn le Murchadh MacChoinnich, agus D脿n Comhfhurtachd do Shir Alasdair D貌mhnallach a rinn Am P矛obaire Dall ( Iain Macaoidh 脿 Ge脿rrloch ). Tha e a' cr矛ochnachadh leis a' bh脿rdachd a thaghadh e nam biodh e "air eilean mara nach tr脿igh", Oran na Comhachaig, a rinn D貌mhnall MacFhionnlaigh nan D脿n.

The late Donald Archie MacDonald chose his poetry from the 16th to the 18th century. We hear him recite verses from B'annsa Cadal air Fraoch composed by Archibald MacDonald. An Duanag Ullamh whose author is unknown, Bothan 脌irigh am Br脿igh Raineach whose author is also unknown, A' L脿ir Dhonn by Murdo Mackenzie, and a composition by John MacKay from Gairloch ( The Blind Piper ) . He finishes by choosing the poetry he would have taken with him to a desert island, Oran na Comhachaig, where the poet, Donald Finlayson, writes as if through the eyes of an owl.
