- We formulate the Dirac oscillator covariantly in the presence of external non-Abelian gauge fields. More precisely, the matter field is written as $Ψ_{αA}(x)$, where $α$ denotes the Dirac index and $A$ the isospin index, so that the Hamiltonian acts on the tensor-product space $\mathbb{C}^{4}\otimes\mathbb{C}^{2}$ in the fundamental representation. Starting from the gauge-covariant Dirac equation, we then implement the oscillator interaction through the standard non-minimal substitution and promote the construction to an $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ background. In this way, we derive the associated non-Abelian field-strength tensor and isolate the commutator contribution, which has no Abelian analogue. Consequently, the generalized Pauli interaction $σ^{μν}\mathcal{F}_{μν}$ produces matrix-valued spin--isospin couplings. At the same time, the Abelian sector reduces to the conventional Moshinsky--Szczepaniak Dirac oscillator, whose exactly solvable spectrum provides a natural benchmark for the extended theory.
