crying tears of joy because finally i’ve found a transliteration/tutorial and i no longer have to embarrassingly mumble 90% percent of the song
Mumbling is acceptable. As long as you mumble with feeling.
oh hi I'm a big fan 🥰
hah! same, although it's kinda fun to try to get it right and fall laughably short. when i try to sing along i usually end up laughing at myself
Dia duit Siobhán . I have wanted to learn this Song for many , many years. Unfortunately my Irish isn't even at Silver Fainne level yet.
However I keep studying and hopefully in this lesson I can learn this song.
Go raibh maith agat.
Is mise le meas,
Ciarán.
Im irish and she does a great job explaining it
Jesus Christ, finally someone who is able to go through the song line by line and explain the pronunciation of this wonderful song. Thank you!!!!!!!
Her Irish pronunciation is so legit. You don't hear legit accents like hers very often.
Agreed a million!!
So Similar to the Gaelic spoken in Lochs Isle of Lewis.
She sounds like she could be the granddaughter of Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh.
Like very medieval
Gle mhath Cai Mackenzie ,cuala mi Ann an sgire na MacConnich aig Londubh siorach Ros,Alba, an teanga na ghaidhlig
this is the video i’ve been looking for for so long, now i’m actually able to go out and sing it live with confidence
Why are the Roman letters nowhere near close to the sound of Irish? Your transcription is a great help, thank you!
Iam 13th generation Irish American. This was passed down to all of us. My great grandmother made sure we knew our Irish heritage. For ever Ireland 🇮🇪.
God bless your work..... I am too old to learn, my ancestry is from Scottish, and Irish, but no one in my family could speak it. But when I hear the songs.......they bring tears to my eyes. Dont stop your work to keep the Gale alive. Maybe someday.....
My favourite lrish song since childhood. It is a cry to battle. Go raibh mile maith agat.
Possibly the best transliteration of the famous song. Thank you, I feel closer to the Irish culture now. 🇮🇪❤️
This. This is what the world needed. This is what everyone needs to hear because by god this is amazing.
I cant thank you enough. I'm American and my grandmother sang this to me once and it made such an impression that I've been on a quest to find it and learn it for 30 years.
I'm from New Jersey, USA, not a known shred of Irish in me, but this has become one of my all-time favorite songs! Now I'm working thru the lyrics....thanks to our Gaelic Angel Siobhan!! :)
Thank you! My great-grandfather would sing this when I was a boy, but I never really learned to appreciate it until after he was long gone.
Hi from Argentina,u are the best teacher I ever met. Thank you
Please never ever stop this, tá foghlaim anois. Is grá liom mo teanga, mo daoine agus mo tír go deo!
making me nostalgic, feels like coming back home Galway
I remember learning this song in school late 60's early 70's and we were taught the meaning and translation but I had long forgotten. Thank you so very much young lady.
You are my hero for doing this. I so wish that someone would also do that for Scots Gaelic songs too as no one is helpful on those that I can tell. This is a beautiful tutorial and I am so happy you have done this.
100,000 Thank Yous!!!!!!!!!!! You are Tremendous. Irish is an Ethereal Language!!!
What a delicious language for the ears ! 🥰❤️👍🏼
Quebec mini -irish person here. I will learn this song and sing it with all my heart. Merci beaucoup mademoiselle.
This is perfect! I've always wanted to sing along to this song but my Irish is rubbish. More content like this please!!!!!
It was explained to me once that this Oro was actually an old warning in Pearse's time as in, Be careful or be on your guard or watch yourself.
Se do bheatha abhaile = it is your life at home.
Oro se do bheatha abhaile =Be careful it is your life at home.
Basically saying all you know is under threat at home it's time to fight as summer's coming.
What do you think yourself?
My Irish Angel!! I'm NJ, USA born and raised, and our language can be hard enough to navigate! But the tune grabbedme by the throat, so to speak, and I'd say has become my fave song of Ireland, and Grainne Mhaol!
Dia dhuit Sióbhán! This song filled our hearts with patriotism! Amhrán tírghrá iontach !( Please pardon my bad Irish)!
Go raibh míle maith agat agus slán go fóill!👍
Thank you so much! I'm Italian, and I really love your country, your culture and, of course, your songs. I try to learn gaelic but it's very difficoult, I have the impression that a lot of people neither know that gaelic language exists... At least, here in Italy. So, I'm very grateful to you for your phonetical and grammatical lessons. Go raibh maith agat, grazie!
You can't say *[neither know], you can say [don't even know].
Not many people know that the Irish language ever existed (aside from phrases like erìn go bragh) There aren't many people in the world that natively speak it and those that do are predominantly the aging population of Ireland.
Great. I'm from Holland. I have a great interest in ancient languages and I really like this song. And what it has meant for the Irish people.
Thank you Siobhan I am 7 from Aoife in England
Thank you Siobhan. I regret to say that I can't speak Irish. Only an odd word and phrase.
I do love that song and intend to watch and listen to this over and over again.
I like your accent. I'm in Loughgiel , Co. Antrim. Thanks again. John Burns. 🤠☘️☘️☘️
You got me in the first 30 seconds with the smile
Another thanks from another appreciative listener.
Hello !
Just wanted to tell you that I picked this song as one of the songs that I performed yesterday for my voice teacher students recitall. And that's a big thank to you as I could pronounce it because of your help ! The only difficulty, which was a big one, was to memorize the lyrics as I absolutely don't speak Irish Gaelic. Although, I made it ! And enjoyed it ! As well as the audience !did !
And to be honest, during the time that I was working on the song with my teacher, I realized that I'm very tempted to learn a little more, at least some solid bases of the language, Your videos are gonna be of a huge help again !
Thanks so much !
Go raibh maith agat !
How many decades I've mangled the poor lyrics of this song. I knew the translation early on and also the written verses but my pronunciation was sad. Thank you for making this heroic song so much more accessible!!
So powerful. Óró always makes me feel so much pride and strength. Slàinte Mhaith Gráinne Mhaol! Éirinn go Brách!
You speak so beautifully. I'm trying to learn Irish and this really helped. This song was what made me try to learn in earnest so I really appreciate the break down.
Absolutely brilliant! God Bless Ireland!
Agus Dia leatsa!
Thanks a lot Siobhan! Greetings from France.
You are welcome!
Thanks for this wonderful video! What a beautiful language. Greets from Germany.
Well... I am a Dubliner, and I always struggled to speak the launguage are pure as that... and wait for this.. my wife is Serbian, who is practicing this song.... and shes doing it better than me ! This is a joy to listen to.
Recently learned through DNA and documents, that my grandfather was Highland Scot and grandmother was Irish. My paternal grandfather was born into a Scottish Gaelic speaking household, on the Clan Cheif's Estate. Sadly my grandparents gave up their Gaelic when they immigrated to New York City early 1900's. Such a shame.TY for the video. I love this song.
I'm SOUTHERN IRISH and I've learned irish in school,, and they say that IRISH language is both more difficult to pronounce and speak than Latin language,, its actually more difficult to learn cauz in irish the BH gives a V sound and the MH in irish gives a V sound too,, us IRISH can understand the words 100% but put irish words in front of Americans and they won't have a clue what's going on 😂 😂 lol,, but I sapoze us IRISH are just born into the IRISH language even tho we barley speak it anymore but we still reconise all IRISH language and words,, IRISH LANGUAGE >>KINDA FADING AWAY BUT WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN,, WE WILL ALWAYS HOLD SOME IRISH LANGUAGE IN OUR HEARTS
This is still one of the most helpful videos for this song and for language in general that I’ve seen!
Thank you Siobhan from county Liverpool.
Bless you, been mumbling along trying to sing this song for years! Beautiful tune.
Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial. You must be the sweetest Irish teacher on the planet ☺️, honestly, your smile is such a heartwarming thing to see - thank you for that too! Lots of love from Austria! 💚
Awesome! I have been trying to wrap my mouth around that song for a couple years! unsuccessfully! Thank you so much!
Cheer's from Australia; THANKING YOU SO VERY MUCH:::))) i play the song on my uilleann pipes and with practice i can sing it too...💖💖😍✔
Many thanks from Prague Czech Republic, love Irish music. Have long liked this song and now I can sing along:)
This is so very beautiful and brought tears to my eyes. Absolutely brilliant!!!! Very well done young lady and thank you so much for taking to time to post this.
Bitesize Irish, I would love to but I’m afraid the Irish language (as beautiful as it is) is something that completely bewilders we English (as it should do of course). Its taken me 3 years to learn Mo Ghile Mear in Irish...but I will keep trying. I just thought hearing you go through this line by line and so clearly, was stunningly beautiful. Keep them coming please. Good luck to you now.
Bitesize Irish, By the way, I meant to mention that the “phonetic spelling” on the screen was the really helpful for none Irish speakers like me. I will get there....Thank you and well done again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you so much Siobhan. What a great way to learn Irish, through songs, just like children do.
Just love her pronunciation and explanation of that song...
Thank you, Siobhan! I'm American, down from famine people and those who came after, and they never let us forget where we were supposed to be. Not a popular view, Americans are not a world favorite now. But if my mum had thought it important she would have had an Irish passport, allowing me to have one. Ah well. The least I can do is learn the language and songs.
If you're mum was born in Ireland you may be able still get one
American perspective so grain of salt, but like... It sounds a bit like you feel you don't deserve to claim your Irish heritage because you are an American and. While I know there are lots of Americans whose "claim" of their "Irish heritage" is ignorant and mostly limited to St. Patrick's day, it doesn't sound like that's who you are at all. So I think if you want to claim your Irish heritage you should do it proudly and without shame.
I love this song. I love all Irish songs.
Thank you! (greetings from Germany) I love your videos ❤️
Madame.... splendid! I am German who does not speak a word of Irish but I discovered that song years ago. Thanks for the detailed reading and explanations. I am amazed at the complexity especially of the pronunciation. It must be very difficult to learn for any foreigner. I enjoyed watching your video and I saved it in my favourites. Keep it up, cheers from Berlin!
This is better way of learning .... Och Aye Lassie ❤️
Go raibh maith agat, Siobhán! I’ve been looking for something just like this ever since I heard the story behind the title, Óró! Sé do bheatha bhaile! Being the traditional way of welcoming a bride to her new home with the groom’s family, centuries ago. I very much appreciate this.
Thank you so much for this! I work in a lot of 1840s historical festivals and I like to sing period-correct songs. It felt so wrong watch people sing the melody with English words.
What a Wonderful VIDEO! May the road rise with you.
Thank you so very much
I miss my home and heart and your words are soothing to those of us far away and not soon or possibly ever to see home again
Oh my word! Thank you, I love you! I've been struggling to learn this song and found you quite by accident (that, and the RUclips algorithm ;) Thank you SO much, Ms. Siobhan, what a great gift you have given me!
You are such a beautiful amazing soul! Thank you this. I'm an american so Gaelic is hard for me. This was so simple. Thank you again for allowing me the chance to sing one of my favorite songs.
Thank you lass, that was quite useful.
Hoping to learn to play this, so just what I needed. Thank you.
We need a Grainne Mhaoll now more than ever. Great video.
I have wanted to learn this for years. You have made this lesson easy to follow.
Go raibh mile maith agat Siobhán.
@@BitesizeIrish I really did. If this is Siobhán I'm speaking to directly it's an honour to speak too you . Go raibh maith agat.
Liverpool accent helps got a lot of influences from various Gaelics. got to fly it with your heart
Absolutely!
Greeting from Nicaragua - 1984 a become brothership with an Irish to help and protect Nicaragua. - in my next live I will born in Ireland
Thank you, from France.
Ja, for faen! This is what we want and need. Thank you!
Tá fáilte romhat, a chara!
I can sing the whole song and I'm not and I don't even live in Ireland. I'm American but I have Scottish and Irish ancestry in the blood so I'm the only one in my family who can sing Gaelic been passed out from generations to generations but skipped most of them got to me. I think the language is the most beautiful language in the world. God bless you and God bless. Ireland keep the language still in Ireland. Chill ends. Took me enough times
Wow thank you so much I've been trying to learn this song for maybe a decade or more, so many thanks to you
Thank you from the O’Toole clan, a mere 90 miles and 400 years from Granuaile O’Malley and her fierce audacity. Go raibh mile maith agat!
Tá fáilte romhat, a chara!
My favourite song. I could sing before I ever knew irish. Thanks for the wonderful video.
MERCI !!!! I am haunted by this song since i heard it the first time and i can't help singing it my head off. So thank you so much for teaching us the good pronunciation. Salut de France
Can we get a video that goes through the entire alphabet, including lenition, eclipses and ao/aoi?
I sing this quite often. Though the version I learnt used "Guile" instead of "Francaigh" I think just referring to the people of the region of Gaul rather than the more specific or more recent French.
In the context of the time the story is being told, and certainly by the time of writing these lyrics, Fancaigh seems like it would have been the commonly used term. That said, I don't personally know any versions of the Hauling Home song this was adapted from to know if maybe it's a hold over from older lyrics, or maybe a just a regional dialect thing.
That was awesome! Thanks so much.
LOVE that you did this thank you!
God bless her thank you our selfs alone
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
