Deirdre & Naoise - Deirdre's Lament

I am Deirdre, full of sorrow,

Without a vision of tomorrow;

Without them my life is past -

And, for me, it will not last.

The Tuatha De Danann then retired before the invaders, without, however, giving up their sacred Island. Assuming invisibility, with the power of at any time reappearing in a human-like form before the children of the Sons of Mil, the People of the Goddess Dana became and are the Fairy-Folk, the Sidhe of Irish mythology and romance.
