She came from Tír na nÓg to Ireland because she heard about the hero Oisín.
Tháinig sí ó Thír na nÓg go hÉirinn mar chuala sí faoin laoch Oisín
She put Oisín under a spell to go to Tír na nÓg, a magical place.
Chuir sí Oisín faoi gheasa dul léi go Tír na nÓg, áit dhraíochtúil

Ar an mbealach, throid Oisín le fatach, Fómhar guilleach ar feadh trí lá agus trí oíche
He freed the princess
Shaor sé iníon rí
Niamh gave Oisín three warnings not to put his foot on ground in Ireland
Thug Niamh trí rabhadh dó gan a chos a chur ar thalamh na hÉireann

When they reached Tír na nÓg they feasted for ten days and ten nights
Nuair a shroich siad Tír na nÓg bhí féasta acu ar feadh deich lá agus deich n-oíche
After a while, Oisín decided that he wanted to see na Fianna again.
I ndiaidh blianta fada, roghnaigh Oisín gur mhaith leis na Fianna a fheiceáil arís
He was still loyal to them
Bhí sé dílis dóibh fós
He was scared that Fionn was dead
Bhí eagla air go raibh Fionn marbh
He went to Finn’s old house
Chuaigh sé go seanteach Fhinn,
But the dasies and nettles were growing there
Ní raibh ach fiailí agus neantóga ag fás ann
He found out that all of the na Fianna were dead
Fuair sé amach go raibh na Fianna ar fad marbh
