- Crucán na bPáiste, 'burial place of the children' - lies on a hilltop in Maamtrasna, Co.Mayo, overlooking Lough Nafooey, and Lough Mask in Ireland. The song was written by Brendan Graham for one of the characters in his new novel "The Brightest Day, The Darkest Night" published by Harper Collins.
Written by Brendan Graham, sung by Karen Matheson
This song is so achingly beautiful, perfect combination of tune and lyrics, so sad but also shows that we care deeply as human beings
This song bought my dearly departed wife to tears every time she heard this.She had 2 miscarriages ,once of wish was around 5 months and the doctors said it was a girl.This beautifully lyrically song bought happiness yo her in a way that she only experienced.
Thank you. So sad about your trials. Hope you are seeing better times ahead.
Much respect and admiration for great artists from Scotland who show such respect and perform so brilliantly in the Irish language.
Very moving piece. Did you have burial places for unbaptised babies in Scotland also?
@@DonyByewe're not Catholic but we are Gaels.
Blood Gaels the finest.
Each time in the West I pay a visit to Crucán na bPáiste. I have only just recently discovered this amazing song so beautifully sung. So evocative of the loneliness and desolation of the story of Crucán na bPáiste and Maamtrasna itself. Míle buíochas Karen
I can't find words... It just has touched a core of my heart...
It is terrible for a parent to outlive one of his beloved children. The pain could not be better expressed. Thank you!
Goodness, how hauntingly beautiful
What a beautiful song. Thank you for thanking of me
s'ea s'ea. This song has followed me for sometime like my donkey Rainbow, and like Rainbow it has warbled its way into my heart
What a song and what a performance, it is hard to match this song and the quality of the music, another seminal moment for transatlantic sessions.
Very sad and beautiful and very real
Thank you Aeolus562 for your kind comments. I never heard of this song until I heard Brendan Graham last Sunday. Two years ago, I did an audio-visual survey of 75 ecclesiastical sites in East Cork and I came across a place called Baunanooneeny. When I heard Brendan describe Crucán na bPáiste, I could not believe it, it could have been the same place. I wish I had his words to describe it. All the best Donybye
What an amazing coincidence! Thank you so much for posting this video of such a beautiful and sad song with subtitles and the video you speak of by Brendan Graham. It was a revelation listening to him describe how this song came to and through him! ruclips.net/video/g7LrYOS-Qk0/видео.html
In the name of the God and the Goddess...
"Never more will I stand...in I reland or Cruan mBaiste" in other words, "screw the Catholic Church for denying my dear one a burial in consecrated ground, simply because she died before being baptized!"
Maith sìbh..
Go hiontach ar fad...
Someone show me to the nearest bridge
it may help to understand this song if you read the little story written by Patrick Pearse ---Padhraig mac Phiarais---back in the early years of the 20 th century. His short stories are the very best ever written , and this story,"" Eoghainin na n-Ean," ( little Eoin of the birds) is the most beautiful of all, I think it is the world's greatest short story.
It was originally written in Irish---Gaelic..
@@geraldinemcdermott7952there is no "Irish" it is a made up name given to the place by the Romans. You are either Gaels or nothing.
ah don't know what it is saying the lyrics don't help nothing
The song is set during the famine in Ireland. People were dying so fast that they had to be buried in mass graves-the children included. But there was a special mass grave just for the little ones. That is what a " crucan na bpaiste" is (burial place of the children) In this song, a young mother grieves the fact she could do nothing to keep her dear little one from dying and wishes she had died as well. Now she vows to leave Ireland forever to the States to try and escape the bitter memories. I hope this helps.
@@jamesparker760 One other aspect you do not know...this is a graveyard for unbaptized babies...died before being baptized....kept separate by the Catholic Church
