    Is this it? Congrats on your upcoming nuptials.

    TÍR NA nÓG
    Colm Mac Séalaigh
    Fadó fadó Éirinn, roimh theacht an nua-aois,
    Bhí conaí ann ar an bhFiann,
    Fionn 's a mhac Oisín
    Is iomaí eachtra a bhain leo siúd,
    Is iomaí casadh croí,
    Ach ní dhéanfar dearmad ar an lá
    A bhuail Oisín le Niamh.

    Curfá:
    Niamh Cinn Óir, as Tír na nÓg,
    B'í an bhean ab áille gné a chas ar Oisín Óg
    Mheall sí é le breáthacht,
    Mheall sí é le póg,
    Is mheall sí é gan aon agó
    Go Tír na nÓg
    Bhí Oisín, lá brea gréine,
    Ag siúl le ciumhais na habhann
    ' Measc blathanna buí, is luachra,
    Taibhsíodh dó an tsamhail,
    Spéirbhean ghléigeal álainn
    A d'fhag croí an laoich sin fann,
    Thug cuireadh dó go Tír na nÓg
    Go síoraí cónaí ann.
    Curfá

    Tír álainn, tír na hóige,
    Tír dhiamhair aislingí
    Trí chéad bliain chaith Oisín ann
    I ngrá mór le Niamh
    Ach fonn nár fhág é choíche,
    Is nach bhféadfadh sé a chloí,
    Dul thar n-ais go hÉirinn,
    Go bhfeichfeadh sé í arís.
    Curfá

    "Ná fág an áit seo," arsa Niamh
    "Ná himigh uaim, a chroí"
    "Má fhágann tusa Tír na nÓg,
    Ní fhillfidh tú ariamh."
    Ach d'fhill Oisín ar Éirinn,
    Mar bhí fiabhras ina chroí
    Is fuair sé bás ós comhair an Naoimh
    B'shin deireadh lena thriall.
    Curfá
    Tír na nÓg, ó Tír na nÓg,
    Tír uasal na draíochta a bhí ann fadó,
    Féach thiar ansin í
    Thiar ar fhíor na spéire
    Sin an áit a mhaith liom bheith,
    Sin Tír na nÓg,
    Tír na nÓg
    Tír na nÓg.
