Arrival of the Tuatha - Celtachor

Ships of fire burst through

The mist of the skies

The Tuatha Dé Danann

From the high air arrive

Four corners of the world

Four cities, four wise men

Four treasures!

Morias, Urias, Arias and Senias

Nuada the High King

Manannán, God of the sea

Ogma, God of Ogham

Diancécht, God of life

Éire, Fódla and Banba

And Dana, the all-mother

The first day of Bealtaine

King Eochaid of the Fir Bolgs came

With his army from the south

Residing in Magh Rein

Till the day of battle arrived

The Tuatha arrived from the Northwest of Connacht

To meet their enemy at Magh Rein

The calm before the storm

Winds whip through the fields of Temhair

King Eochaid had a dark vision

He told his druids

In turn they told the king

That a strong enemy

Was rising up against him

It would not be long till war would begin
