Then quick spreads the fear of the mighty invader, Yet all for Tir Conaill are banding to aid her; And their chieftain--alas! that the death-wounds have bound him--Calls the men of his might from the valleys around him. Then he raises his voice by that wild river billow, With the gash in his breast and the gore on his pillow--"O'Niall," he says, "from his mountains of bleakness Ever came in the hours of our sorrow and weakness: He pours on our valleys, and now we will greet him With the welcome of old on the plains where we meet him! In the day of my strength ye have found me before ye Where'er your bright claymores to victory bore ye; In the day of my weakness my soul must be long ing To see how my people to battle are thronging! v. Then sound ye, my children, the war note defiant From the gray Arran cliffs to the Pass of the Giant, And make me a bier like the biers of my fathers; Bear me high in your van where the red Niall gathers, And we'll scatter his bands, as the storm-clouds of Heaven From Aileach's black rocks by her thunders are driven!" Then the hearts of his warriors grow stronger and prouder, And the shouts of their ardour swell wilder and louder, And fiercely their war-pipes are ringing and pealing, From the low-lying glens to the far mountain shieling. " He then directed his men to place him on the bier which should take him to the grave, and to carry him on it at the head of his forces."--Ilaverty's History of Ireland.--See also Annals of the Four Masters. VI. They've made him a bier like the biers of his fathers, They bear him afar where the red Niall gathers--Six champions of might from that green forest alley Bear him on thro' each wild glade and torrent-bound valley, ...
Download or read book Ballads of the Lords of New Spain written by and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compiled in 1582, Ballads of the Lords of New Spain is one of the two principal sources of Nahuatl song, as well as a poetical window into the mindset of the Aztec people some sixty years after the conquest of Mexico. Presented as a cancionero, or anthology, in the mode of New Spain, the ballads show a reordering—but not an abandonment—of classic Aztec values. In the careful reading of John Bierhorst, the ballads reveal in no uncertain terms the pre-conquest Aztec belief in the warrior's paradise and in the virtue of sacrifice. This volume contains an exact transcription of the thirty-six Nahuatl song texts, accompanied by authoritative English translations. Bierhorst includes all the numerals (which give interpretive clues) in the Nahuatl texts and also differentiates the text from scribal glosses. His translations are thoroughly annotated to help readers understand the imagery and allusions in the texts. The volume also includes a helpful introduction and a larger essay, "On the Translation of Aztec Poetry," that discusses many relevant historical and literary issues. In Bierhorst's expert translation and interpretation, Ballads of the Lords of New Spain emerges as a song of resistance by a conquered people and the recollection of a glorious past. Announcing a New Digital Initiative http://www.lib.utexas.edu/books/utdigital/ UT Press, in a new collaboration with the University of Texas Libraries, will publish an interactive digital adaptation of the Ballads that will expand the scholarly content beyond what is possible to publish in book form. The web site, to launch in conjunction with the book in July 2009, includes all of the printed book plus scans of the original codex, a normative transcription, and space to interact with the author and other scholars, as well as art, audio, a map, and other related material. The digital Ballads will be open access, bringing one of the university’s rare holdings to scholars around the world.
