I'm Japanese student. Now I study Ireland culture, and finally I found out this videos. It moves my heart. I hope this song would sing forever and spread all over the world!!!!
“And now I am full of tears”.. Excellent Irish blend! The flute, the violin, and the ballad melody of Maura O’Connell makes this song a heavenly music forever.
This song reminds me so much of my childhood. My father used to sing this song to me when I was younger. Would love to go back to those uncomplicated days again! 😢
I’m a mexican guy and discovered this song. I loved it’s wonderful! My mind it’s so big in musical likes so there are music from the thousands of countries and this is special.
@@janstrelinger4076Kate matison singing beside her . This is Maura,s song no doubt but Kate deserves a mention. Certainly the best version of this song in my opinion.
I grew up listening to this song as a child. I hum it to myself sometimes. Strange how things were so difficult then and all there are are memories of this song.
I learned this beautiful song when I lived in Galway, Ireland for 11 years. Now, back in Germany, I have performed it a few times with my own Galway Girl Laura. And for the past few months, this has been a standard lullaby for our 5-months-old half Irish-half-German daughter Tara. One of the most beautifully sentimental songs I have the fortune to know. Beautiful performance, too!
English for me used to be distant and far out of reach for me... and now I feel so fortunate to be surrounded with lots of great works written and performed in this language. I first read W. B. Yeats's Down by the Sally Gardens and I was deeply moved by how time flies and how it makes people's remembrance of the past have such a great impact upon all of us. And now, listening to this song performed by the very talented Irish singer Maura O'Connell makes me believe art is our universal language. True talents do stand the test of time!
Maura O'Connell is an angel!!! Every time I hear this song, it makes chill... But Maura brought tears to my eyes... No one will ever sing this song like her! It's perfection!!! Thank you for bringing us such wonderful song in a perfect voice!!
i first knew this lyrics as a peom of Yeats when I was in my 10th grade, and a few years after I realized that it has been composed as a beautiful song as well. I felt so related to the poem to some unknown reason, that it fills my eyes with tears every time I listen to it
This is THE best version of this beautiful song, for me. I hate it when opera singers take it on, it changes the whole context of the song! It's an Irish folk song and only singers like Maura can give it creedence. IMHO...So gorgeous thank you for posting. My choir is singing this, I hope we do it justice but it is your version I listen to.
Maura.."Fashion is fleeting but Styles as Yours Endures"! Our Irish lost Treasure! Please Sing again W B Yeats would have adored you..as I and all still do...with your voice of a Trush!!..It's purity and musical brilliance...brings appropriate tears! You are an Irish Icon..Please sing again!x John Co Tipperary.
I am Irish, to think I've never heard it until I saw Emma Thompson sing it and play the piano at the end of the movie...the tears wouldn't stop. I sought it out. Thanks to UA-cam Music I listen to Emma & Maura's version with tears and lost love....
I am theoretically supposed to sing this at a concert but these ladies have set the standards so high I am actually scared! But not of your voices, they are so amazing!
So many different people from some many different countries find the beauty and the peace in this superb rendition. If only we could bring that beauty and peace out of this song and into the world. When the power of love overcomes the love of power then there will be peace. Stay safe Stay strong
Thank you gentlemen for your short sighted and totally uninterested remarks to this video. We herewith go back to the essence of Irish music and the story telling bit where it doesn't matter who is singing the song. Lovely sung and lovely song! Well done girls!
Beautiful rendition of a beautiful song. Thank you, Maura O'Connell and Karen Matheson, and thank you, snootbaronet, for bringing this lovely version to UA-cam. W.B. Yeats is a consummate poet, and the song is set to the traditional melody, "The Maid of Mourne Shore".
Maura & Karan do Sally Gardens beautifully. When I was a teenager I was a drummer in a accordion band and won the all Ireland . For me personally its the timing that makes or breaks the song .
Very well done people. The vocals were lovely as were the instruments.The dobro was a somewhat surprising addition to a traditional Irish ensemble, but woven in quite masterfully. All in all a tasteful and enchanting rendition.
when I arrived in Clifden, Connemarra after travelling from Germany and visited Roundstone, Cleggan, Inish Bofin and climbed the Tully Mountain .... I felt the heartbeat of this awesome country have a look ...........
Did this song as a solo for a Solo/Ensemble Contest in my Sophomore Year of Highschool. Was my second favorite song to sing for Solo Ensemble, This was such a beautiful rendition and the slide in her voice is something I can only dream to be able to actually pull off!!

aww that's really sweet to hear. I'm glad you're enjoying our culture :) I used to be able to play this on the tin whistle
Yes it is a great song written by an Irish poet called W.B.Yeats.

This is the most beautiful and moving version of this song I have ever heard in my 71 years. Thank you so very much. Huzzah, from Texas.
Definitely Maura is the best
Agreed, and have heard many. Such a lovely song too.
@@janstrelinger4076Kate matison singing beside her . This is Maura,s song no doubt but Kate deserves a mention. Certainly the best version of this song in my opinion.
Clannad's live version is also of high quality.
beautiful from one of the most underrated singers in Ireland.

Brings tears to my eyes. Her voice is perfection for this song and the accompaniment superb.
One of the most heart touching lovely Irish songs! Really full of soul!
This was my Grandma's favorite song. Bittersweet memories.
Just another one of endless reasons to be proud of my Irish heritage🇮🇪🇺🇸
Eeww..
Your reply is odd
I cried when I was listening to this record..
Such a beautiful rendition. I wish I could 'like' this a million times.
Me too.
Yeah I agree👍👍👍
Why am I in tears

I’ve seen that - they try to make too much into a classical opera song, and some of the feeling is lost
Except it's not an Irish folk song. It's a poem by W.B. Yeats that someone set to music.
Masterpiece song.
what a lyrics
what a poem
what a story
❤️
When I was 13 we performed this song in my choir and I always thought it was so beautiful
Why does this singer always move me so much! What a version and what a song.
This is by far the best version on UA-cam. Sounds really nice!
Mizule Ri Ra also do a great version
Clannad’s is also good

This concert makes people happy
Reading “The Children Act” and I had to come listen to this wonderful song… very touching story and indeed a moving song.

I'm not from Ireland but I discovered this song in a book called "bloody Jack" and this songs just brings me to tears :') such a beautiful song
the beauty of understatement
I am theoretically supposed to sing this at a concert but these ladies have set the standards so high I am actually scared! But not of your voices, they are so amazing!
+RandomnessLOL You'll be fine! :)
+Evan Ingalls Aww thanks!!!
This song helped me discover the beauty of the poetry of Yeats
Awesome !
I subbed to u

When I was in middle choir this was the best song we ever sung. I still love it till this day. So much memory within one song!
This music is amazing ~
When I was a child, I fill in love with this tune ~
Simply beautiful
A wonderful performance. Best wishes from the San Francisco Bay Area.
So many different people from some many different countries find the beauty and the peace in this superb rendition. If only we could bring that beauty and peace out of this song and into the world. When the power of love overcomes the love of power then there will be peace. Stay safe Stay strong

I often, of a summer's afternoon, play this tune on my Irish whistle.
It's a sad beautiful song. It often makes me cry.
Thank you gentlemen for your short sighted and totally uninterested remarks to this video. We herewith go back to the essence of Irish music and the story telling bit where it doesn't matter who is singing the song. Lovely sung and lovely song! Well done girls!
some boys are playing too ....
but maura and karen are singing deep into the soul of anyone listening ...
(if there is a soul...)
What remarks? Only Catharina, Sweden suggested a man should sing it.
That was absolutely beautiful, ladies! Your harmony was impeccable! You sounded like angels. I loved every note of it!
How lovely . Sang this last night for the first time with my choir. I love it.
What a beautiful song...l love this forever
这首歌，这个版本，是目前听过最好的感觉。这首歌悠扬婉转，这样慢慢唱更能打动人心。配乐也非常好。这首歌真的适合有点故事的人听。能让人找到心底的柔软和对自己年少时的一种百感交集的回眸。走了那么长的路，吃了那么多苦，就是为了遇见今天的自己。
That's a beautiful discription
有个中田美惠的版本也很好听 每个人都会糅合自己的感受演绎不一样的味道
WB yeats is buried in our local church at Drumcliffe along with some of my family members, I’m proud to call sligo home, the jewel in irelands crown.
Wow. Simply incredible vocals, and the accompaniment was great too. This is my new favorite song!
Beautiful rendition of a beautiful song. Thank you, Maura O'Connell and Karen Matheson, and thank you, snootbaronet, for bringing this lovely version to UA-cam. W.B. Yeats is a consummate poet, and the song is set to the traditional melody, "The Maid of Mourne Shore".

Maura & Karan do Sally Gardens beautifully. When I was a teenager I was a drummer in a accordion band and won the all Ireland . For me personally its the timing that makes or breaks the song .

very interesting choice of music 'Down by the Sally Gardens' - haven't heard that for years. Another great video.
The beauty of the song and performance stopped me in my tracks. My eyes wet with love and melancholy.
Did this song as a solo for a Solo/Ensemble Contest in my Sophomore Year of Highschool. Was my second favorite song to sing for Solo Ensemble,
This was such a beautiful rendition and the slide in her voice is something I can only dream to be able to actually pull off!!
How beautiful!
