Feats of War

I bid thee welcome,

Valorous one

I scried your arrival

And know what must be done

So swear your allegiance

And you may remain

I will give you my guidance

For a year and a day

Now enter my fortress

And stand by my side

I've never before

Met a warrior so proud

Swear your allegiance

And you may remain

I will give you my guidance

For a year and a day

Oh brave young Cuchulainn

Day by day you learn more

Such courage and such vigour

I train and I teach you all feats of war

Come let me show you

Crafts of battle lore

Sword-edge and shield rim

The grand deeds of war

Swear your allegiance

And you may remain

I give you all my guidance

For a year and a day

Oh brave young Cuchulainn

Day by day you learn more

Such strength and such honour

I train and I teach you all feats of war

Now there's only one skill left

Most terrible of all

Barbed spear, Gae Bolg

The deadliest feat to call

You've sworn your allegiance

And you have remained

I gave you all my guidance

For a year and a day

So now I will have nothing

To teach you no more

Such courage and vigour

Strength and such honour

All heroes shall hear

Of your deeds of war

The only champion

Improved to perfection

The greatest warrior you are

For now you have learned

All my feats of war

Now you have learned

All my feats of war
