Database: Ciara's Song of the Lia Fáil

(Gaelic)Lia Fáil
Cúig cinn de bhealaí a cheanglaíonn thú
Ceithre cinn de ghaotha a bheannaíonn thú
Trí cinn de chloigne a phógann thú
Dhá sháil chinniúnacha a aireoidh do bhéiceach - fúthu
Ar Chnoc na Teamhrach ina sheasamh, Lia Fáil
Ar Chnoc na Teamhrach ina sheasamh, Lia Fáil
Mise croí chloiche Inis Fáil
An croí a bhfuil rúin ar eolas ann i bhfolach
An croí aithníonn gach dúíl is díth
An file nach gcanann ach,
faoi dhá sháil fhíor-rí
Canaim amhrán Inis Fáil
Do mhian Éireann go fíor,
Brisfidh mé mo thost
Cluinfear mo bhúir sa ghort torthúil
Ín anáil na síochánam sa ghleo tairbheach
Is iad a thug chun a' chnoic mé,
A bhréadaigh mo thoil don chúig
Is iad a dúirt an tír a chosaint
Agus dán Inis Fáil a stiúradh

(English)Stone of Destiny
Five are the roads that bind you
Four are the winds that bless you
Three are the heads that kiss you
Two fated heels that shall feel you roar - beneath them
On Tara Hill standing, the one Lia Fáil
On Tara Hill standing, the one Lia Fáil
I am the stone heart of Inis Fáil
The heart that knows secrets that it hides away
The heart that knows all it desires and needs
The singer that only sings
Under two heels of true kings
I sing the song of Inis Fáil
For Ireland's true will,
I shall break my still
You'll hear me resound in the bounteous fields
In the breaths of peace, in the turmoil that yields
Tuatha Dé Danann - brought me here from afar
To the hill, where they braided my will 'to the five
Tuatha Dé Danann - bid me warden the land and as long as I stand, steer the fate of Inis Fáil
