Duisgeadh agoinn dámh donn a doire donn níamhdha nua...
Three brave heroes woke with the sun On a misty morning three were as one The ancient forest rang with the sound Of a crystal-tongued blackbird and the cry of a hound
Raise up your hunting spear Raise up your hunting spear Raise up your hunting spear Raise up your hunting spear
We are Oisín, Caoilte and Fionn Three great hunters and we follow the sun To the mountains of Mish, through the heather and briar To the green slope of Cua with our hearts full of fire
Danú, danú, danú dé Danú, danú, danú dé Danú, danú, danú dé Danú, danú, danú dé
Raise up your hunting spear...
Danú, danú, danú dé...
We awoke a great brown stag from the new grass...
Danú, danú, danú, Goddess Danú, danú, danú, Goddess Danú, danú, danú, Goddess Danú, danú, danú, Goddess
Danú, danú, danú, Goddess...
