      Though Duncan (the fiddle player) isn't a relative is actually Wolfstones fiddle player too, he used to be with Ivan Drever Wolfstones former lead singer, he partly forms a duo with Ivan, whom I have personally met is Duncan, probably the most phenomenal celtic music fiddle player across the world without any doubts from me personally.

    Julie is such a National treasure. Our modern world is rotting to the core in the West. Its fantastic women like Julie who our young generation should be guided towards as role models. A proud loving mother, darling wife and talented hard worker with a love of her culture and heritage. Instead our young women are spoon fed Miley Cyrus and the Kardasians.

    My love is on the high seas
    One fine evening at the beginning of May when the bats were in the sky
    I heard a young girl who was tearful
    sing in the shade of the green branches.
    The sun was setting on the sea
    and no star had risen into the sky
    when the maiden sang sadly
    "My love is on the high seas".
    The night-time dew began to come down and its drops gently bent the flowers, The wind blew a flagrant breeze, life and refreshment to every meadow.
    The girl tuned the melody of her song
    soft and sweet like the dew in June
    and this chorus kept on coming up:
    "My love is on the high seas"
    The day got dark and the stars shone,
    the moon sailed through the clouds of the sky.
    The maiden sat, distressed by sorrow,
    with no desire for sleep or rest.
    I drew close to this wonderful young woman who was singing about her love who had sailed overseas.
    Oh, her sad plaintive call was sweet-sounding: "My love is on the high seas".
    By this music I was willingly drawn
    close to the brown-haired girl with warm eyes as she prayed to the Lord
    "protect my love on the high seas".
    Her heart was breaking with love
    when I took her by the hand "be away from tears, your love is saved, I came safely across the high seas".
    Tha mo ghaol air aird a'chuain
    Feasgar ciùin an tus a'chèitein
    nuair bha 'n ialtag anns na speuran
    chualaim rìbhinn òg 's i deurach
    seinn fo sgàil nan geugan uain'.
    Bha a'ghrian 'sa chuan gu sìoladh
    's reult cha d'éirich anns an iarmailt
    nuair a sheinn an òigh gu cianail
    "Tha mo ghaol air àird a'chuain".
    Thòisich dealt na h-oidhch' ri tùirling
    's lùb am braon gu caoin na flùrain
    Shèid a'ghaoth 'na h-oiteag chùbhraidh
    beatha 's ùrachd do gach cluan.
    Ghleus an nighneag fonn a h-òrain
    sèimh is ciùin mar dhriùchd an Òg-mhìos
    'a bha an t-sèisd seo 'g éirigh 'n còmhnaidh
    "Tha mo ghaol air àird a'chuain".
    Chiar an latha is dheàrrs 'na reultan,
    sheòl an rè measg neul nan speuran.
    Shuidh an òigh, 'bròn ga lèireadh,
    's cha robh dèigh air tàmh no suain.
    Theann mi faisg air reult nan òg-bhean
    sheinn mu 'gaol air chuan 'bha seòladh.
    O bu bhinn a caoidhrean brònach

    Rinn an ceòl le deòin mo thàladh
    dlùth do rìbhinn donn nam blàth-shùil
    's i ag ùrnaigh ris an Àrd-Rìgh
    "Bìon mo ghràdh 'th' air àird a'chuain".
    Bha a cridh' le gaol gu sgàineadh
    nuair a ghlac me fhèin air làimh i.
    "Siab o dheòir, do ghaol tha sàbhailt,
    thill mi slàn bhàrr àird a'chuain".

      The feeling like that I got from watching the Outlaw King on Netflix (actually Robert I's mother Isobella Huntingdon was a descendant of the Gaels so there's every possibility he would have spoken not only Norman French mostly, but then Latin (since all historical records were written in Latin of course back then as well as Gáidhlig/Gaelic and English (his father having fought actually with Edward I.
      Actually a descendant myself of that very Clan (hence using the coat of arms as my photo).

      Technically speaking there's 3 variations (more broadly speaking rather) of the Gaelic language, it's more a family of languages.
      Scots being Gáidhlig (thus no e to change the sound of the a).
      Irish Gaelige)
      Middle Irish - Manx or Gaelg.
