Màiri nighean Alasdair Ruaidh (c. 1615-c.1707) is perhaps the best known poet of the MacLeod family, one of the earliest practitioners of Scottish Gaelic clan poetry, whose work, or part of it, has survived. Perhaps a native of Harris and close to the MacLeods of St Kilda, she is best known for her songs in praise of Sir Tormod MacLeod of Berneray (c.1609-1705). We have 11 of her songs in all, but also some others, included here as appendices, which have been ascribed to her.
