    I have no clue what this song is about. But all fibres of my body tell me it is my song. Hats off!

      It is about a man from the north-east of Ireland who has been exiled to Scotland, and who wishes he could return home.

      @@Alenarien Thank you very much for your kind explanation.
      No I know why this song is so sad and nostalgic.

    One old English folkie here: most people think my musical tastes are a bit wierd, my friends will confirm that. In the last 3 years I have discovered my musical home is in Celtic music, and I haven't looked back. 58 years wandering in the musical wilderness, what a waste of life. But I've made so many new friends, started to learn Gaelic, what a community!

    I don't know the words but my Irish soul is singing!
    Soon I will return to my roots. And I am doubly blessed that I will take up the beauty of my Mexican wife and see it into my Irish history!

    There's an English version called "The Quiet Land of Erin" based on this lovely Irish Gaelic song. It has the same refrain, "Agus och och Eire lig os o", I heard it sung by a guy called Barney Downey from Cork back in the 1960s.

    Thak you sooo much for posting more of their songs! I wanted to buy this CD last year when i was in Cork, but it wasn't available :( Consequently, the only possiblity for me is to listen to them on youTube. I know that uploading is timeconsuming but the more you post the better :) Thank you once again

    Contrary to what anyone else says, as PDQ Bach said on his radio show, If it sounds good, it is good. A very beautiful song with great resonance.

    My friends tell me that this music is shit... but I always fail to understand how it doesn't move them from the deepest parts of their cores to the tips of their fingers. Even as a young black man with a Scottish great-grandfather, I can still appreciate this... so why can't everyone else?

    Why are these lyrics always off a little? Are they auto generated somehow? This song has been on here too long for that maybe. But the lyrics are missing letters and even words.

    • @antiolrachmor
      @antiolrachmor 9 месяцев назад +1

      The lyrics look good to me, what letters and words do you think are missing? The only things I noticed were maybe "féin" when they actually sing "fhéin", and "trá" instead of "tráigh". But both of those are perfectly fine in my opinion, just differences in pronunciation.

    Beautiful.
    Dá mbeinn féin in Airdí Cuan
    In aice an tsléibhe úd 'tá i bhfad uaim
    B'annamh liom gan dul ar cuairt
    Go Gleann na gCuach Dé Domhnaigh
    Cúrfá:
    Agus och, och Éire 'lig is ó
    É ire lonndubh agus ó
    ' s é mo chroí 'tá trom agus brónach
    Is iomaí Nollaig 'bhí mé féín
    I mbun abhann Doinne is mé gan chéill
    Ag iomáin ar an trá bhán
    Is mo chamán bán i mo dhorn liom
    Nach tuirseach mise anseo liom féin
    Nach nairím guth coiligh, londubh nó traon
    Gealbhán, smaolach, naoscach féin
    Is chan aithním féin an Domhnach
    Dá mbeadh agam féin ach coit is rámh
    Nó go n-iomarfainn ar an tsnámh
    Ag dúil as Dia go sroichfinn slán
    Is go bhfaighinn bás in Éirinn
    Google translate is really becoming first rate for Irish: I think this is not bad, a few errors (eg,. lonndubh is blackbird, camán is a hurley stick..). Maybe. people more fluent might comment..
    If I were myself in Ardi Cuan
    Near that mountain is far from me
    It was rare for me not to visit
    To Glenna Cuach on Sunday
    Chorus:
    And oh, oh Ireland 'let it go
    It's black and white
    My heart is heavy and sad
    I've had many Christmases myself
    At the bottom of the Doinne river I am without a clue
    Drifting on the white beach
    I have my white card in my fist
    I'm not tired here alone
    I don't hear the voice of a cock, a blackbird or a crow
    White, smoky, self-righteous
    I myself recognize Sunday
    If I only had a row
    Or that I would go swimming
    Wishing for God that I would arrive safely
    To die in Ireland

      Gun robh math agad, a charaid. Tha Gàidhlig na h-Alba agam (ach chan eil mi fileanta fhathast). A bheil thu gam thuigsinn?
      Tha ceist agam: carson a th’ am facal “fèin” sgrìobhte gun seimheachadh san amhran seo? Chuala mi seimheachadh anns an t-seinn. A bheil sin ceart? An cuala mi sin?
