Derdriu [English translation]

O Derdriu, you will destroy much

If you are comely-faced and fair of fame.

The Ulstermen will suffer during your lifetime,

O demure daughter of Feidlimid.

You will perform a horrible, fierce deed

For anger against the king of the noble Ulstermen.

Your little grave will be everywhere.

It will be a famous tale, O Derdriu.

Even afterwards jealousy will be

Ablaze on your account, O woman.

In your time it is, hear this,

The exile of the three sons of Uisliu.

You will perform a horrible, fierce deed

For anger against the king of the noble Ulstermen.

Your little grave will be everywhere.

It will be a famous tale, O Derdriu.
