Song Lyrics

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

Salve rex gloriae

We are Oisín, Caoilte and Fionn
Three great hunters and we follow the sun
To the mountain of Mish through the heather and briar
To the green slope of Cua with our hearts full of fire

Salve rex gloriae

Danú, danú, danú dé

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

Salve rex gloriae

Danú, danú, danú dé
