I sang, my voice hitting the high notes.
It was a piece that I had been thinking about for a while.
It was about me.
My name is Niamh.
Pronounced Neev.
Yeah it's unusual, but I like it.
I love the legend of the name, but it's a bit sad.
It goes like this:
One morning the Fianna were deer hunting on the shores of Lough Lein in County Kerry.
They saw a beautiful white horse coming towards them.
Riding on the horse was the most beautiful woman they had ever seen.
She wore a long dress as blue as the summer sky and studded with silver stars.
Her long golden hair hung to her waist.
"What's your name and what land have you come from?" asked Fionn, leader of the Fianna.
"I am Niamh of the Golden Hair.
My father is king of Tir-Na-nOg," she replied.
"I have heard of a warrior named Oisin.
I have heard of his courage and of his poetry.
I have come to find him and take him back with me to Tir-Na-nOg."
"Tell me," Oisin said, "what sort of land is Tir-Na-nOg?"
"Tir-Na-nOg is the land of youth," replied Niamh.
"It is a happy place, with no pain or sorrow.
Any wish you make comes true and no one grows old there.
If you come with me you will find all this is true."
Oisin mounted the white horse and said goodbye to his father and friends.
