letra de all éire will quake - mael mórdha

such a force of men as diarmuid’s new troops were, had not been seen in éire before, exen with such a small number of soldiers. mac murchadha did achieve a dominance that rattled the other king. in sueing for peace it was agreed that diarmuid would be reinstated as king of laighin in return for him giving his son, conchobhair, as a hostage to the high-king ruaidhrí, and sendind home his new troops. diarmuid, of course, had other ideas

ua ruaire you b-st-rd. ua conchobhair you fool
in the name of mac murchadha do i rule
with grey foreigners at my command
all éire will quake. the kings wake
to the burning of their dúns
the waiting og their women
the crying of their children
and the death-moan of their men
as their souls leak from their rotting corpses
to whatever gods do they believe in

did you really think, oh mighty ard righ
that i would send my warriors home
and once more groan under your yoke?
you misguided fool, soon we’ll do the battle
at my command
all éire will quake. the kings wake
to the burning of their dúns
the waiting og their women
the crying of their children
and the death-moan of their men
as their souls leak from their rotting corpses
to whatever gods do they believe in

waiting for my time to come
hoping that my plans be not undone
for my time it be at hand
to finnaly reclaim my land

horror. the ard righ still has my son
despair. he would not dare to k!ll my son
hostage. so i could turn to my land
ochone. my scheme undone by death’s hand
