The Legend of Oisín and Niamh (Tír na nÓg)
Aug 10, 2025
In the days when the great warrior-band called the Fianna roamed the hills and forests of Ireland, there lived among them a young man named Oisín, son of the legendary Fionn Mac Cumhaill. Oisín was not only a skilled warrior but also the greatest poet in all of Ireland, with a voice so beautiful that even the birds would stop singing to listen to his verses.
One bright morning in early summer, Oisín rode with his father and the Fianna to hunt deer on the shores of Lough Leane in Kerry. The lake sparkled like jewels in the morning sun, and the air was sweet with the scent of wild flowers and the song of larks.
