Macha curse

MEMORIA OF MACHA

Daughter of Earnmas,

Daughter of Dealbaoth,

Daughter of Aedh

Wife of Cruinnchu,

Wife of Dithorba,
Wife of Nuadha,

Pale Wife of the chieftain,

Mother of truth and generosity,

Sun of woman-kind,

She who comes from the sea,

Red-haired one,

Hooded crow,

Raven woman,

Distinguished and faithful,

Pure Glory.

 

Mother of twins,

Greatness of wealth,

Diffuser of all excellences,

She who showers forth accomplishments,

Gathering of boldness,

Giver of riches,

House-Keeper without compare,

She who clears plains,

Dearly astute woman, mad with passion,

She who rears by suffering through splendour.

 

Spring of craftiness,

Swifter than white steeds,

Raven of the raids,

Source of bitter fighting,

Mistress of fire, mist and blood,

Wielder of fierce magic,

She whose word lasts forever,

She who inflicts debilities,

Maiden of the sword-point,

Mother of the acorn-crop,

She who accompanies warriors,

Dominator of the sons of Dithorba,

Great of fame in life and death,

Sovereign lady of Ulster.
