I am 81, and this had me in tears as I remembered my darling wife, long dead. Beautifully sung.
Only 4 years old? God has blessed this child.
This gave me chills. Such a beautiful little girl with a beautiful voice. May Heavenly Father continue to bless this child.
It gave me chills too.
Thank you so much Suzanne. New music video coming out again very soon so stay tuned. Subscribe and you won't miss it.
Such a pure and beautiful voice! Thank you honey
@@EmmaSophiaShow Thanks! I subscribed when I first found your channel. :) I look forward to hearing the new one. Have a blessed week!
Oh bless you Sweetheart.. What a beautiful voice you have. It blessed my heart to hear you sing 💜💜
I was expecting a little girl who somehow sounds like a 40 year old opera singer. But this was just her with her little girl voice, beautiful!
Well, I don't have irish blood, but married a Dubliner , 55 years ago,
Widow now, is a rendition of Danny Boy, never to be forgotten.
She is ( GORGEOUS ).
Not having Irish blood is not important, this song is known worldwide and is in fact an English Ballad written by Fredrick Weatherly, nothing in the least to do with Ireland.
@@georgebarnes8163 Just to clear things up and avoid a wrong impression, Fredrick Weatherly certainly wrote the words of Danny Boy, but a song consists of more than just the words and the music is certainly Irish and is not known as “The Derry Air” for nothing. Weatherly set his ballad to the music, even altering it to fit in with the tune.

@@timhoulihan3310 There is no evidence the "The Londonderry Air" was Irish, it is credited to a Scotswoman called Jane Ross but no-one knows who wrote the music, I have heard all sorts of tourist stories from the little men at the bottom of the garden through 3 legged dogs to one eyed deaf fiddlers all of which claim to be the authors but no-one knows for sure.
“I have heard all sorts of tourist stories from the little men at the bottom of the garden through 3 legged dogs to one eyed deaf fiddlers.”
Well I don’t go there, myself. I tend to go to written sources for my information.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Boy
www.irishmusicdaily.com/danny-boy-history
(Some little men in this account!)
And in this extensive article, well worth reading, several sources are debated about the origin of the music.

Such A Beautifu Little Child And Such A Wonderful Rendition Of "Danny Boy". Thank You Little Emma Sophia
Wow a four year old singing Danny boy she’s so good .
Let those of us who appreciate the singing of Emma just go on listening and loving it. For those who give a thumbs down I suggest that rather than insult this talented child just move on. No need to be rude or cruel.
Cannot believe the huge, positive response 😯. Everyone has been so kind with their words and how much this song has meant to them 😊. Delighted with how people have said it is bringing a sense of hope for them in the world 🙏 Thank you so much everbody and especially to all who have subscribed to the channel. New video coming very soon 😀, so stay tuned...you won't want to miss it!! ❤☘
May you protect the innocence and talent of this little girl always....it won't be easy in a world where many care less about God given talents and more about money, but I pray she is strengthened and guided with the love of family and Faith.
@@myjeevie Just
Just so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes loved it xx
In the last 18 months, I have lost my father, four dearest friends, my dog, my horse and now on Good Friday, at 0315 we lost our home to a fire. I needed to really hear this, thank you Emma. From the Rocky Mountains of Wyoming, USA.
I pray that The Lord will Bless you and keep you safe on your life's journey. God has given you a very special gift and thank you for sharing this beautiful song with us.
How can 78 people give thumbs down to this super adorable little Irish girl with such a cute voice.
I bet 77 of them can’t even croak a note
stones for hearts
I was thinking the Thumbs Down were from parents who had 4 year olds who were not yet potty trained and who were jealous of this talented lass
They are Devil..who thumbs down...children are of heaven says jesus.MCGI..GOD BLESS
Could it be that they do not know what they are doing? this is the most GLORIOUS voice! and I cannot think of any reason why anyone would give a thumbs down, but that they have no clue what they are doing.
What a BEAUTIFUL song, sung by a most PRECIOUS "IRISH LASS"!!!!
I don't care if all her relatives are professional musicians; even if so, this is a rare talent.
And that high note made me cry. High notes are hard.
Some places in the world we sing just for the pure joy of it. This little lass gives me hope.
And she hit that high note so perfectly and sweetly.
Gorgeous Little One "God" Bless You Always
I'm an old Irish man held hostage by my American birth, but my ancestry is from the Old Country, and I've loved many renditions of this great old song, but none as soul touching and sweet as your singing.. Thank you, Emma Sofia!
Thank you so much Ron. Delighted you like it. More songs like this on the way. Delighted this one touched your Irish heart.
I’m an old lady trying hard to remind myself I’m on the sunny side of eighty. I’ve been alone for three years now. This song was so beautiful; I’m sure it warmed your heart. I think it broke mine.
Ron Eagle. Same here but I’m an old Irish soul born in Australia. I grew up listening to my Dad sing all the Old Country ballads. Thank you so much Emma Sofia. You sure pull at our heart strings 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Beautiful xx
I’m with you! I wonder if it’s in some peoples genes - home sick for a place one never grew up in.
I heard this song 1000 times but this is a first time it made me cry
same
i cant stop cryin every single time i listen to it... a grown man... brought to tears
Mr.@@diggitydugc3547 , Mr. David West, Ms. Tamplin, R.L. and Bronte: There is NO WAY I can watch and listen to this without tears streaming down my face. I think you know why, but I shall tell you anyway. Sweet Emma Sophia was brought into a world full of strife and discord. That is putting it mildy, eh? I am now 70 and my father would be 111 if still alive. He died at age 80 in 1990. He always had great love for children and was deeply saddened when he saw news reports when little ones suffered. Imagine what he would think and feel today. 😢 Emma's mama Mary has become a good friend of mine on Facebook. Her band, AFFINITI MUSIC from Ireland is now my new #1 BAND of ALL-TIME!!! 🍀💚 ALL children, like Emma Sophia deserve to have the beautiful childhood that her parents are giving her and her sweet baba brother. Someday soon, our God and Father will bring a New World that guarantees that all their days will be full of LOVE, JOY, PEACE, HAPPINESS, and SECURITY! All for now, gentle men and dear ladies. 🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖
@@michaeltriba1307 this little angel .. indeed inspires and releases our deepest emotions.. reaching into our very cores.. our soul... that very ability is a treasure to behold. and all of us ... everywhere .. share this very same .... when we listen - .. from out of the mouths of babes.... Dia dhaoibh
@@diggitydugc3547 Well said, sir, well said!!! "God to you" also, kind sir! 🍀💚🙏
omg....I wasn't expecting to be brought to tears.
In spite of her sweet munchkin voice...she strikes every note beautifully. ❤
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL. LITTLE 4 YR. OLD GIRL SINGING THIS SONG WITH PASSION.!!! MAY ALMIGHTY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS HER WITH ALL HIS LOVE AND HIS BELOVED SON'S JESUS 💕 IN JESUS NAME I PRAY,, AMEN. 😇🙏❤️👍👌💞
Is the song that inspired my name .verry magically song an god bless you all for sharing
To remember the lyrics is talent enough but the voice so pure and innocent. Thoroughly enjoyable don’t know when this was recorded but I’m sure this young lady has a great future ahead of her which should definitely be nurtured and encouraged. Well done young lady - those high notes 😳
Ms. Clarke; this was recorded just a few days before Emma Sophia's dear parents filmed this; in March of this year. Her mother Mary and Emma also recorded an 8 episode show during the lockdown. I have watched half of them, and need to finish very soon. It is called, "The Emma Sophia Show" and is the most adorable thing I have ever seen on the Internet. 😁 I know you would also adore it!!! 🤗🤗🤗 Best regards, Michael from Omaha 💖🙏 P.S. Her mama Mary is the violinist for the Irish Trio called "AFFINITI MUSIC! They are the sweetest and best band I have heard in my 70 years!!! 🍀💚💚💚
@@michaeltriba1307 Thank you for the information! This is delightful!
@@sunnyhill2250 You are so very welcome! 😁🤗 When I find someone worthy of sharing, I do not like to hold back. This is how I discover artists that are new to me as well. #sharingiscaring 💖💖
Why are you referring to her as a "young lady?" She is a wee girl! A young lady would be a teenager, close to adulthood. I prefer the word woman, as "lady" brings to mind old fashioned women before the Suffragettes started the first Women's Movement. Those women wore white gloves and sat around sipping tea, until they stopped being ladies and started a REVOLUTION!
@@hooleyqueen I know you are addressing Ms. Clarke and not me, but since I am in this thread I just got notification of your reply to her. Google defines "young lady" as "a woman who is not far advanced in life; a girl." So I think that "young lady" well applies to Emma Sophia who is now 5 years old. Emma Sophia is very "lady-like" so IMHO it is a very sweet way to describe her. So is "wee girl" as you said! You are even worse than me in getting caught up in semantics and going off in a tangent!!! 🤣😂🤣😂 Cheers!
I just bawled my eyes out to this. It was played at my fathers funeral. ❤️😭
I may not have any Irish blood running through my veins, but my heart is full of it. This little girl and her way of singing this song has been able to pour even more fuel into the fire of love for Ireland that's burning inside of me for many, many years now. She sure has another fan now and I expect and I'm looking forward to hearing many more songs from her in the future.
Thank you for sharing your talent with the world, little Emma Sophia. It will take quite a while for you to truly understand but you do have the power to do the most important thing there is in the world: Make people smile and cry for happiness and all types of emotions at once. Please, never stop.
A beautiful rendition of a most beautiful song by a beautiful Irish ☘️ Caitlin Og. The Aron Sweater is gorgeous.
You don’t have to be Irish to love this. I pray that young Miss Emma continues to entertain us. P.S. For those who gave this a thumbs down....shame on you.
Lovely song
I hear this and can't help but think of all the brave Irish who sadly left their homeland and families, bound for America during the potato famine. What an absolutely pure and heartrending rendition! Thank you, dear ones!
What an absolutely beautiful little lady!! & her voice!! It's so sweet! Just beautiful!
Beautiful voice. Can't stop crying. God love this little Angel
Thank you, thank you, thank you. God Bless the Child.
Who the devil puts a "thumbs down" on this? Well done that young lady.
It would be the devil's followers...those without the love of God. Too bad. They need Jesus.
People with a broken heart, hurt people. So please be kind with them especially 🙏 kindness can sometimes help them to heal their pain. Always remember that ♥
@@hannahoriginal4698 You sound like a sweet and compassionate person and broken hearted people desperately need that. Even so, broken hearted people need to be held accountable for their actions. This is a four year old….think about that. Some people are just plain heartless. I believe Daniel and Elaine were commenting on them. Would you advise us to show kindness to Judas or Satan? Look at the hurt they caused. Should we not hold them accountable? People who would hurt an innocent four year old in any way, shape, or form doesn’t get my compassion
@@pennyclark3356 okay... No one could hurt here. Everything's fine. I just wanted to say that in this case people probably disliked it because their hearts are hurt and closed so they cannot open them for the beauty of this video.
@@hannahoriginal4698 I am so sorry. I misunderstood the message you expressed so kindly. Thank you for the clarification. Still, it is very sad that someone would not keep their dislike to themselves…..especially when it involves a young child. I doubt she knows anything about it. I hope not. It could break her heart and crush her spirit
Wonderful! Thank you Emma. (Don't EVER smoke!... EVER! )
Beautiful girl, beautiful voice and beautifully filmed. Who isn’t in floods of tears?
My goodness,that's broke my heart ,so emotional what a beautiful child ,god bless.❤
Gorgeous angel keep singing little darling 🎶 ❤️
Lovely. Heart-rending, as it should be. Sometimes as an Irish-American, I think I get tired of hearing this song, and then...
Thank you so much. I'm really happy it resonated with you.
I'm in tears,reminds me of my own Darling Daughters at that age,so sweet

Absolutely precious........and one of my favorite songs.........
This baby girl really has talent God bless her 🇮🇪
This has been my.dad favourite song, whenever i.go.visiting him he wii.sing this song,.he passed away 2 years ago after living for 97 years,but sang songs like these almost just up to his death.
God bless you child,you are so endaring.
What a beautiful voice , in such a young talented young lady. Emma has a brilliant future. God bless!🙂👍❤❤❤❤❤
Makes me think of my dear grandmother. Rip Nana💚☘️
Such a beutiful song. Amazing performance and from a 4 year old. Made me cry.
You can feel Holy Spirit in this child. So lovely pure like heaven. Praise God.
Amen, God bless her
Beautiful beautiful what a amazing gift thank you for your beautiful talent for sharing may you continue to be the beautiful blessing to so many thank you 🙏
My grandfather was born in Bagenalstown, Co Carlow in 1867. I've been home twice and love singing and playing "Danny Boy". This little lady is absolutely spell-binding !!! Thank you, Emma. Mike Hayes, Paeroa New Zealand
I have a teer in my eye, first it's one of my favourites, next, she is such a little wee treat. Bless her heart.
She makes us see the imagery of this song through a child's eyes and a child's heart. Beautiful Emma 💗
Ho that was lovely hearing the young girl singing Danny Boy really enjoyed listening to it. It bright a tear in in my eyes. This is because it was my sister's faverate song. I lost my sister 12 months ago so it brought a few tears to my eyes.
What a beautiful clear voice that dear child has. My Irish Grandad would have loved hearing that as he used to play it on his button accordian and sing. Today is Anzac Day and he fought in World War 1, so it seems appropriate that i heard that today.
Not gonna lie. Heard this many times. Left me in tears. Absolutely stunning.
Thank you so much!
My Irish genes are crying. My only brothers name was Daniel he died early during to agent orange I miss him so and always play this song on his birthday He would have been 74 today So many ‘Danny Boys ‘ gone. God bless them and those whom they loved and loved them Danny I love you and miss you ❤️❤️🙏✝️🙏❤️❤️
This needs no words, but I just had to say it.
The best ever! The angel didn‘t miss a note….she brought out tears and longing from an old old heart.
Dear Emma, Your song touched my heart in a way I hadn't felt in years. If angels walk among us, you are surely one. I cried tears unshed for decades. Your song, your voice fills me with hope for all humankind. There is an innocence and purity in your voice. I'll have you know I have tried to find all of your songs to listen to. When I'm am feeling blue or disheartened, you bring me joy. Thank you little angel for being a bright shining star. I wish you nothing but continued health and success in whichever endeavor you should choose.
Oh what a beautiful voice from a beautiful angel! May God continue blessing you with His gifts.....🙏🏻❤️🥰
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL, from Australia, very powerful for me, wish Sophia all the very best, Brian Mc Carthy,28/3/21.

For 4 years old absolutely incredible sang so beautifully with feeling and understanding incredible ❤
Beautiful rendition of this classic song from a stunning location just a short walk from where we live 🇮🇪☘️
Where is it?
Lovely. Are you _allowed_ to walk there or is it beyond the five kilometer limit that the current lot of demented, degraded, and vile "leaders" have imposed upon the Irish?
@@helenwatkinson2261 old head of kinsale and Sandy cove kinsale, anyone can go there really
@@seanplunkett4154 thank you. Heading over there as soon as we can.
@@libertyfirst4083 I am very fortunate that this walk and several other beautiful walks are within my 5km limit.
What a wee angel. A great girl singing a beautiful song In a cable knit sweater. Perfect.
Ireland always and forever
Loving the young and innocence of her voice
She’s so innocent and so is her beautiful voice.
No words.....just tears. Thank you
Not gunna lie, made me a little teary thinking about my own kids. Off to wrestle a bear or something manly now
Lovely Emma. Thank you for sharing your sweet gift.
Ireland looks so Beautiful. I was their for only 90 minutes as a stop over before going to Germany when I was in the US Army. We went into the Bar in Shannon airport. At least I can say I lifted a few in Ireland.
This Irish lady is in tears.
I'm from Spain, and being there in Ireland, 12 years ago...unforgettable land!!! Beautiful, ancient and mystic. This little and beautiful girl, represents the most wonderful feeling of the Irish people! Congratulations for her and her family, you have a treasure! 💟💟Thanks for shearing!
My grandfather sang this song constantly after his 2yr old son Daniel died, Daniel was the 10th child of 13Children. Great memories, and a beautiful voice Emma.
I love the way she pronounces the words!❣❤💘💕💙💚😃👍
An angel from heaven!!!!! If only we could be so innocent again!!!
Living in England, no Irish blood but have a brother living in Ireland with his Irish wife who is just the best, I have heard this song many times. It is not an easy song to sing but Emma Sophia .... Wow! You're family are obviously very proud and rightly so. Just lovely. Thank you.
In Dublin !! My Danny boy is my Favorite song, Emma Sophia I like it from a lovely and inspiring voice of a young girl,
May God bless you for a successful future
I do not see the relevance of the Irish blood thing in the context of the song, it has nothing to do with Ireland.
@@georgebarnes8163 I was merely making it clear that I am not Irish but have Irish family. This song makes many people think of Ireland. I was posting to praise and encourage a talented little Irish girl, that's all. What are you doing exactly?
@@alisonhenderson9839 Why would an English song make anyone think of Ireland?
@@georgebarnes8163 The words are written by an Englishman but the music is Irish. Frederic Weatherly's Irish sister in law sent him the Londonderry Air and he put the words to it. It's none of your business why it makes me think of Ireland but the fact remains it does.
Beautiful song, beautiful little girl with a lovely voice. Love the imagery ❤️
The best Irish song, my dad use to sing this song when I was growing up. Beautiful.
Oh....what a doll! Such a beautiful voice, crystal clear, note perfect, I'm over the moon...👏🏻💖
That was my grandfathers favorite song...I now am 50, and have experienced so much loss in the last 18 months....this brought so much joy in my heart. Thank you, from the Rocky Mountains, in Wyoming, USA.
Hello how are you doing 👋☺️☺️👋😀😀

The innocence of a baby’s voice. Beautiful.
Emma you have been handed a great gift of talent by God. And I can feel the sweet spirit come through in your singing. I pray that throughout your life, you always give God thanks for trusting you with this gift, and that every day you ask Him to keep your soul and spirit clean and innocent to always keep that quality in your heart. It is the unheard part of the gift hidden in your soul that will draw people to hear your singing.
Amen!
Yes! Amen & Amen!!
Amen! That couldn’t have been said any better!! 🙏🙏😇😇
🙏
Well said😉
such a grand little lady that sings like an angel with the purity of a child god bless ya heart for singing this song, you have made a 71 yr old lady very happy, Anna from Ireland
To capture the emotion of a song separates those who sing and those who are born to sing. Well done Emma!
You SWEET SWEET Child... May God Bless you ALL your life... with love from the US
What a beautiful wee lass.. I'm Scottish of Irish ancestry and have heard this song a thousand times. It was a favourite of two of my uncles now deceased. It stirs the soul. So beautifully sung. Thank you darlin' girl.
My dad played this on his trumpet !!! What great memories!! Beautiful!!! 😔
I was still learning to tie my laces at 4, that’s some talent for a 4 year old.
She’s got a beautiful voice she did a very good job of the song. He reminds me of my husband. He used to sing all the Irish songs and this is one of them until seven he took US Life a drunk driver. Back in 2001. Downtown Cleveland Ohio. I miss him And I love him Michael Patrick Neubauer.
Ur voice us a gift from Jesus thank you for a beautiful song sweetie. From Henryetta Oklahoma
I have heard this song sung by many adults, professional singers and those with ordinary people with great voices too...but this is the first time that i heard and watched a four year old girl sing this song and i felt like a little angel is singing, i was so touched.
How adorable in every way possible... little baby girl...xx
Well i think this must be the most beautiful sound i've ever heard in my life, i'm in awe!!! WOW!!!
Maith thú Éama...
Emma Sophia’s rendition is “dedicated to everyone with Irish blood in their veins”.
...........🥀
I haven't got a drop of Irish blood in my body but my soul is Irish, I believe.
Does that count?
