Sorley MacLean
- ... that Scottish poet Sorley MacLean once called upon the Red Army to liberate his homeland? Source: "The ‘Dàin do Eimhir’ were only partially reprinted, out of order and without the numbers that gave away their position in the original sequence. ‘An Cuillithionn’ (1939) was bowdlerised further. MacLean had called on the Red Army to liberate Scotland, asking ‘Có bhier faochadh dhan àmhghar / mur tig an t-Arm Deasg sa chàs seo?’ (Who will give respite to the agony / unless the Red Army comes in this extremity’, trans. Sorley MacLean)." Scottish Poetry Library

This article was recently promoted to GA, is long enough, neutral, and well referenced. The hook is very interesting and verified with the supplied source. QPQ is done. AGF on copyvio as Earwig is down right now and there are too many sources to check manually. Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 00:46, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
