I've been a rabid fan of Altan, for decades. I saw them many times in Upstate New York during their tours. They still rock our collective spirit, our beauty, as children of Eire. ☘ ☘ ☘

I hate to break it to you but it is an Irish song

@@callu947 Tha thu ceart, a charaid, ach nach eil na faclan eadar Gàidhlig na h-Alba agus Gaeilge? B’ ann à Reachlainn a thàinig an t-òran seo, àite far an robh a’ chainnt gu math coltach ri cainnt Ìle agus Earra-Ghàidheal.
‘S e neach-ionnsachaidh na Gàidhlig a th’ annam, le Gàidhlig bhriste. Ach bha mi a’ tuigsinn na faclan gun dragh sam bith. Mar as àbhaist cha thuiginn òran ann an Gaeilge idir.
