Lyrics Arrival of the Tuatha - Celtachor

Arrival of the Tuatha

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
