Duration | 2.50

A 13th century text about an Irish raid on the land of the Vikings.

Dirgidh bhar sleagha sealga lé a ngonmaois fearba fíre
Mar do bhámar re gaiseadh ní dhénmaois aistear aoíne
Seólaidh bhar mbolcca corra go borraibh loma lochlainn
Lé bhar gcraoísreachoibh go ndaígne ro gonsam Ráighni roscmall

Your spears will lead the hunt and strike down true men.
As we were in battles before, we shall not undertake an idle journey.
Your swelling waves will sail to the bare shores of Lochlann,
With your powerful chains, we secretly wounded the slow-eyed kings of Ráighne
