Ca bfuil na Fianna croga - nach bfuil siad ann Ca bfuil mo cairde ogra - taispan iad dom Nach aithne me, Oisin, sar mhach as Fionn Is me arais aris in Eireann Gach rud athrach anois -gach rud difriuil Is dun na fianna i creach sna coilte mor Is bhronach trom a cneasta ar mo ceann Is me arais aris in Eireann Where are the brave Fianna, are they not here? Where are my young friends, are they not here? Don't you recognise me, Oisin, the son of Fionn? Now that I am back in Eireann Everything has changed now, everything is different The forts of the Fianna are in ruins in the great woods A heavy depression has decended on my mind Now that I am back in Eireann
