Testo di Ferdia's Song , Gae Bolga

A reprise of the introduction as Cu Chulainn tries to frighten off his friend Ferdia from a battle he knows will end in his death. Gae Bolga is the name of Cu Chulainn's supernatural spear. "Everthing I say" Cuchulainn cried, "Is larger far than life itself". But Ferdia just grinned and shook his golden hair. "And everything I do is ringed about With fantasy". But Ferdia just laughed And shook his silver spear and fell to battle again. "Every step I take" Cuchulainn cried, "is measured out in centuries". But Ferdia just laughed and shook his golden mane. "And now I must make my stand; for your death Is my destiny". But Ferdia just laughed And shook his silver spear and fell to battle again.
