  1. Another Story on the Same Lios

    Share Share Post
    One bright moonlight night an old man happened to be going home from Drimoleague and his way led across the fields through Derrygrea, This old man had a great hump on his shoulders. When passing along the field in which the Lios is he heard beautiful music the sweetest he thought he ever heard. He stood for a little while and listened - then he saw the little people coming towards and heard the words they were singing. This is what he heard : -
    De Luain is Dé Máirt
    Dé Luain is Dé Mairt
    De Luain is De Máirt
    Is Dé Diardaoin.
