I love this song for many reasons. The pictures are of a time now gone but which I still remember. A people gracious and generous. It also reminds us that we will indeed be returning home at the end of our journey here. And the singing is just lovely too.
Such a hard place to live, stormy, difficult to grow food, isolated. But life goes on. And the music runs through those of us whose ancestors left seeking gold, never to return!
We have lost much by our high tech fast paced world. These people were very connected to God and nature and relyed on each other for strength and support. Somehting not evident in today's society.
àillidh ! tapadh leat for sharing this beautiful video and song by Runrig:)(tapadh leat Mo Choir Charaid Saul) I love and appreciate the Scottish Gaelic culture very much and wish very much for the ways of the old finds it ways back..It is important to move forward of course but at the same time one should never forget the way of the ancestors and many gone before us.Slàinte mhòr agus a h-uile beannachd duibh.ALBA GU BRATH!!! ♥♥♥
Thanks for uploading this song and the video! Do you know of anymore videos on youtube that show how life used to be on the islands? I like seeing the older lady knitting socks, while I'm doing the same!

North Uist. The home of me grandmother and my father. I will go there one day.
The bit at the beginning and the end makes me feel very nostalgic for some reason, even though I've never visited the Western Isles.
VIVA ALBA FROM GALICIA SPAIN
