King Of The Tuatha Dé Danann

A Strambotto Inspired By A Beautiful Work By Justine G. Cappelli of The Chicken Legged Workshop

"Nuada Airgetlám" by Justine G. Cappelli

Introduction

This is my eighth piece inspired by Justine G. Cappelli's beautiful artwork.

This is a Strambotto inspired by the artwork rather than the actual legend

The full story of Nuada Airgetlám - King of the Tuatha Dé Danann is on the link below, but this is obviously a major influence on Michael Moorcock's "Corum of the Silver Hand" that I covered here, and looking at Justine's painting, I see the silver hand:

The music is " Nuada Airgetlám - King of the Tuatha Dé Danann" by Dann Dawg

King Of The Tuatha Dé Danann

☘️⚔️🦅🍀🗡️👑🗡️🍀🦅⚔️☘️

See Nuada Airgetlám Standing Tall

The King Of The Tuatha Dé Danann

With His Hair Of Red, A True Hero For All

On His Flowing Cloak Is A Jet Black Raven

Silver Hand On Mystic Sword, He Will Not Fall

The Healer Dian Cécht Made His Arm Of Argent

Retuning Monarch Of The Emerald Isle

After The Battle Of Mag Tuired Torment

🍀🗡️👑🗡️🍀

Under The Siver Sun, The Raven Watching

Nuada Shows Power That He Does Command

He Stands In Regal Spledour, This Irish King

Ready To Fight Battles to Protect His Land

In Boots Of Fine Leather 'Neath The Raven's Wing

From Loughs Of Eire To The Atlantic Sands

The Irish People Nuada's Praises Sing

Of Their Beloved King With The Silver Hand

☘️⚔️🦅🍀🗡️👑🗡️🍀🦅⚔️☘️
