This poem's title is actually in Irish. "Tir na nBan" means "The Land of the Women." It is one of the epithets used to refer to the Irish Otherworld where the fairy folk dwell. If you have any questions or comments about my website, you can e-mail me at: amethyst@starplace.com. Thank-you!

          Tir na nBan

          We are here - female voices,
          Our words echo through centuries,
          Teaching future generations -
          right from wrong.

          By singing and dancing,
          Through writing and speaking,
          We inspire those people -
          around us.

          We have herstory.
