Soraidh Slàn le Fionnairigh / Farewell to Fiunary
The wind is fair, the tide is fine
And swiftly, swiftly runs the time
My boat lies wating on the tide
To carry me from Fiunary
Bu tric a ghabh mi sgrìob leam fhèin
Mun cuairt air lùchairt Fhinn an trèin;
'S a dh'èist mi sgeulachdan na Fèinn
'Gan cur an cèill am Fionnairigh.
We must up and haste away
We must up and haste away
We must up and haste away
Farewell, farewell to Fiunary
Bu tric a sheall mi feasgar Màirt
Far am biodh Oisean seinn a dhàin,
A' coimhead grèin aig iomadh tràth
Dol seach gach latha 's mi 'm Fionnairigh.
Beannacht le athar chaomh mo ghrá,
Beidh mé ’g cuimhneamh ort go brách;
Guím gach sonas ’s gach ádh
Don tsean fhear ’bhí i bhFionnairigh.
We must up and haste away
We must up and haste away
We must up and haste away
Farewell, farewell to Fiunary

So wonderful to see the songs my grandmother sang to me being sung by a new generation.

When I was a little boy some 80 years ago my grandmother would sing to me this beautiful song!

[@craigkirkpatrick1500]

I love this stuff. Is there any way to purchase or download music from the Port series?

[@TradTG4]

Dia dhuit Craig, I'm not aware that a collection of music from the series exists. It's a good idea!

[@ottersholt9564]

@@TradTG4 It would be a very good idea and a tour?

[@drummerboy1390]

Don't hold your breath waiting for a tour at this, or any time in the near future and beyond.
We're all effectively unemployed, making lockdown videos and trying to figure out how to pay the mortgage.
Touring is distant memory.

This song confirms to me, the Irish are one of the lost tribes of Israel.

[@eileannach4350]
