    My family just buried my grandfather yesterday. He passed away on the 8th, and he was 91. Lately, I've been listening to a lot of music that is usually played at funerals, and it has helped. This song came out at the perfect time and it is wonderful. Thank you so much. God bless

    Being Scottish, I've grew up with Auld Lang Syne being sung every Christmas and New Year celebration - but I think this is the first time I've heard it sang in the Irish language, even more so beautifuly and with such emotion I felt the impact of every word. Thank you Colm for this version. An absolute stunner. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    Lyrics:
    Ó bhun go barr na tíre is ar fud an domhain seo beidh
    Na Gaeil ag canadh lámh ar lámh ar oíche Auld Lang Syne.
    Ar oíche Auld Lang Syne seo muid, ar oíche Auld Lang Syne
    Ag canadh amach le bród anocht ar oíche Auld Lang Syne.
    Ó Mhumhain go Gaillimh ‘s ar aghaidh ó Thuaidh agus ‘fud fad Chúige Laighean
    Beidh glór ón Daingean uasal libh ar oíche Auld Lang Syne.
    Ar oíche Auld Lang Syne seo muid, ar oíche Auld Lang Syne
    Ag canadh amach le bród anocht ar oíche Auld Lang Syne.
    Ar oíche Auld Lang Syne seo muid, ar oíche Auld Lang Syne
    Ag canadh amach le bród anocht ar oíche Auld Lang Syne.
    I'm sorry if it's messed up I did my best but I don't speak the language so I can't tell if it actually matches up with what he said.

    • @herelizasaint
      @herelizasaint Рік тому +22

      The version know today is really close to the original Scots version. The poem was written by the famous Scottish poet Robert Burns in the Scots language. Reading the original version is very close to what most English speakers sing today.
      The Irish version of this was very beautiful.

    • @MircallaDuNord
      @MircallaDuNord Рік тому +7

      As the other person mentioned, it was written in Scots by Rabbie Burns. There wasn't a Gaidhlig version as the language was only really kept alive in the Highlands at the time Burns wrote his version of the song (then the clearances happened and capitalism destroyed the Highland culture and nearly made Gaidhlig extinct). I've always wanted to hear this in either Scottish or Irish, and I'm so glad that Colm did this.

    The best things you do Colm is when you find a song that has more poetry in it than the normal performances bring out. Like Angela Lansbury you're an intelligent singer who reveals the meanings of what you sing. So find songs that have never had their poetry revealed before and blow our collective minds.
