Just saw this over on UpTheDeise.com (Waterford message boards). Nice change of lyrics. Didn’t know they were so musically gifted down there!

Could any Waterford folk tell me where the name ‘The Deise’ comes from?

Is that the anthem of Waterford for Sunday?

County Waterford is known locally as “The Decies” (An Déise). Some time between the 4th and 8th centuries, a tribe of native Gaelic people called the Déisi were driven from the southern parts of the country, conquering and settling here. The ancient principality of the Déise is today roughly coterminous with the current Roman Catholic Diocese of Waterford and Lismore. The Deise has a rich history from megalithic tombs and ogham stones, to Vikings, to remnants of English occupancy, including the Gaulstown dolmen, Reginalds Tower and the Ballysaggartmore Towers respectively.

Cheers, Good one Watt Ford!

Waterford is a mighty fine county too! I hope ye’s win the All-Ireland.

(BTW, there is a road/street in Ballyfermot, Dublin called ‘Decies’ Road.)
