Upon the horizion,the tower of glass stands tall Balor of the evil eye ,watchs over all The sons of nemed attacked with the power of druid spells A great wave swallowed them and took them to the depths
A druid told balor,he would fall to a grandson He sent his only daughter ,ethlinn away into the tower of glass Twelve women put there to guard and protect To never see or hear the name of a man And to grow beautifull.
Cian, goibniu and samthainn Three brothers of the tuatha de danann Residing at druim na teine The ridge of the fire Guarding the glas gaibhnenn Who's milk would never fail From the theiving hordes That coveted her.
Balor had set his eyes on it as well Turning into a young boy he tricked samthainn And as the brothers quarelled about the iron and steel He left the forge,snatched the cow and crossed the sea.
Cian traveled to the mountains to find the druid birog She dressed him as a woman and sent him across the sea In a gust of wind...... As they entered the tower of glass Birog put a spell of sleep upon them, Cian found ethlinn and she gave herself to him But by the winds,he was sent away
And ethlinn bore a son!! Balor found out and a fear grew on him He sent his people to put the child in cloth and to secure it with a pin Balor commanded that the child ,be tossed into the sea As the waves crashed,tumbled and fell A newborn thought to have drowned The one prophesised ,to end the tyrants reign....
Birog saved the child and brought him to cian And he sent him to taillte,daughter of the great plain Thus lugh was born And a saga began..
