'Kweena Coo Hulling'
Song composed by Bill Whelan.
Presented here is
Davy Spillane with a lament on the uilleann
pipes for Cuchulain, the great Irish hero and
leader who fought the sea prior to his death.
Cúchulainn /(Irish "Hound of Culann"; also
spelled Cú Chulainn, Cú Chulaind,
Cúchulain, or Cuchullain) is an Irish
mythological hero who appears in the stories
of the Ulster Cycle, as well as in Scottish
and Manx folklore. The son of the god Lugh
and Deichtine, sister of the king of Ulster,
he was originally named Sétanta , but gained
his better-known name as a child after he
killed Culann's fierce guard-dog in
self-defence, and offered to take its place
until a replacement could be reared. At the
age of seventeen he defended Ulster
single-handedly against the armies of queen
Medb of Connacht in the epic Táin Bó
Cúailnge ("The Cattle Raid of Cooley"). It
was prophesied that his great deeds would
give him everlasting fame, but that his life
would be short; one reason he is compared to
the Greek hero Achilles. He is known for his
terrifying battle frenzy or rÃastrad, in
which he becomes an unrecognisable monster
who knows neither friend nor foe.
He fights from his chariot, driven by his
loyal charioteer Láeg, and drawn by his
horses, Liath Macha and Dub Sainglend.
