I`m 76 years old, half Irish and half Scottish, can`t speak a word of Gaelic but love to listen to it being sung but always end up in tears. I`ve always loved to sing and listen to traditional folk music but this is something else, how lucky we are to have these talented people to soothe our souls and break our hearts.
@lyndakean9652 I've started using the app duolingo. They've got a free version now that is pretty good. I'm still learning the basics of scottish but I'm having so much fun learning
I am in my 70’s and learning Gaelic- Lakota and Irish here we have been in North America since around 1645 on the Irish side and generations more on my Lakota side! My father was from Donegal and his mother was from the county Clare! He was born in 1899 and died in 1989! Dad was 53 when I was born and I grew up learning Irish songs and laments but knew very little of real Irish history! We lived the Lakota way but my mother had a deep love and respect for the people of Ireland! Upon my Dad’s last wish my sister and I are learning Irish Gaelic along with our grandchildren! 💚🤍🧡💚🤍🧡
Thanks for sharing! Very interesting! I’m Irish and becoming interested in my language again after having school Gaelic. Listened to a Lakota Elder ‘Tiokasin’ talk about the Lakota language, No subject, No object, No nouns! I find the Lakota language fascinating!
@@interestedpart2650 Yes and we have no nouns, therefore we have no pronouns- We have words for mother and father but being a mother or father is a verb- a function rather than an object! Tiokasin is 💯 % 🍃🦬🍃☀️🍃
Its just plain CELTIC let rip in spades.Its all ther the mists of time,the sacred oaks,the Old Gods,the introspection,the despair,suffering and sensitivity and the peeping of the little people across the half door that Yeats knew about,all still there despite our modern "sophistication" and digital "know-how".Long may the Sean-Nos last.
Still one of the single most captivating performances I’ve ever found in youtube. This is as amazing as anything I’ve seen with my own two eyes. Thank you for this gift.
Yes captivating. Really a great performance. You feel the vibes of days past. Maybe the viking men could sing like this too when they came to the isles. I am Swedish and I think this way. We are all german/celts.

This is a beautiful otherworldly piece. Liam's singing is haunting all on its own with a deep resounding depth to it; his choice piano notes are a great emphasis at points. I'm also enjoying the drone set up by first the guitars, and then by Julie on harmonium. You can hear that flute "wail" in that piercing solo, and violins come to the fore to great effect. The final segment with the blending of all the instruments is a perfect cap to the performance. Simply beautiful

Old Irish is written different nothing like Spanish language it was the Saxons who basterized the Irish language in writing but they can't steal the real language from true Irish man's tongue and soul we are from druid Gael pagans Tál
@@An-Éire Yo no digo que se escriba igual o tenga correspondencia ,se sabe que Irlanda y escocia tienen una gran influencia anglosajona, pero cuando escuchas canciones en lengua vernácula ,parece a la fonética del español ,la pronunciación de la ,r , las vocales etc ,también hay más idiomas que tienen un parecido fonético con el español como la lengua griega
@@fcojavierblanco5280 the saxons have no influence on Irish culture and it was the Irish Gaels who brang Gaeilge Gaelic to Scotland and Isle of man the Scottish were pics from picland spoke pictish wiped out by the saxons the Irish Gaels called Scotland =Albain Irish brang Gaeilge Gaelic to Scotland. Scottish Highland are all of Irish bloodlines the Irish Gaels was first people on Iceland too 64 percent of Icelandic people have Irish Gael blood 🇮🇪

This is gorgeous
@@patrickdonohoe8114 great suggestion, another beautiful rendition of an old song, thank you for the link.
perfect
This song is about a young man whose wife has poisoned him with his eel dinner.
The Song of the Eel (Lord Randall)
"Where have you been since morning, my pet?
Where have you been since morning, oh flower of young men?"
" Fishing and fowling. Make my bed for me.
I'm sick in/to my heart and I'll have to lie down."
"What did you eat at your breakfast, my pet?
What did you eat at your breakfast, oh flower of young men?"
" An eel with a twist in her, poison kneaded and mixed into her.
I'm sick in/to my heart and I'll have to lie down."
"What will you leave your brother, my pet?
What will you leave your brother, oh flower of young men?"
" Five thousand pounds, a gun and a hound.
I'm sick in/to my heart and I'll have to lie down."
"What will you leave your sister, my pet?
What will you leave your sister, oh flower of young men?"
" Little white sheep and the cattle to milk.
I'm sick in/to my heart and I'll have to lie down."
"What will you leave your father, my pet?
What will you leave your father, oh flower of young men?"
" The key to my stable, that and my mare.
I'm sick in/to my heart and I'll have to lie down."
"What will you leave your mother, my pet?
What will you leave your mother, oh flower of young men?"
" If I leave life forever to her I'll leave her a broken heart.
I'm sick in/to my heart and I'll have to lie down."
"What will you leave your children, my pet?
What will you leave your children, oh flower of young men?"
" A long time wandering in the cold, and each night a different shelter.
I'm sick in/to my heart and I'll have to lie down."
"What will you leave your wedded wife, my pet?
What will you leave your wedded wife, oh flower of young men?"
" Hell as her surroundings and Heaven to be closed on her.
I'm sick in/to my heart and will be for ever and ever."
Why do you think it was his wife who poisoned him?
Sacred sound.

Maith an fear.
Go raibh maith agat as seo!
Táim ag foghlaim Gaeilge agus bhí mé ag iarraidh teacht ar na focail don amhrán an-álainn seo. Agus seo iad - aistriúchán Gaeilge agus Béarla!
"Cé raibh tú ó mhaidin a dheartháirín ó?
Cé raibh tú ó mhaidin a phlúir na bhfear óg?"
" Ag iascach 's ag foghlaereacht, cóirigh mo leaba dhom,
Tá mé tinn fá mo chroí agus caithfidh mé luí."
"Céard a d'ith tú ag do bhricfeasta a dheartháirín ó?
Céard a d'ith tú ag do bhricfeasta a phlúir na bhfear óg?"
" Eascann a raibh lúb uirthi, nimh fuinte brúite uirthi,
Tá mé tinn fá mo chroí agus caithfidh mé luí."
"Céard a fhágfas tú ag do dheartháir a dheartháirín ó?
Céard a fhágfas tú ag do dheartháir a phlúir na bhfear óg?"

Tá mé tinn fá mo chroí agus caithfidh mé luí."
"Céard a fhágfas tú ag do dheirfiúr a dheartháirín ó?
Céard a fhágfas tú ag do dheifiúr a phlúir na bhfear óg?"

Tá mé tinn fá mo chroí agus caithfidh mé luí."
"Céard a fhágfas tú ag t'athair a dheartháirín ó?
Céard a fhágfas tú ag t'athair a phlúir na bhfear óg?"

Tá mé tinn fá mo chroí agus caithfidh mé luí."
"Céard a fhágfas tú ag do mháithrín a dheartháirín ó?
Céard a fhágfas tú ag do mháithrín a phlúir na bhfear óg?"
" Má fhágaim an saol go brách aici, fágfad croí cráite aici,
Tá mé tinn fá mo chroí agus caithfidh mé luí."
"Céard a fhágfas tú ag do chuid páistí a dheartháirín ó?
Céard a fhágfas tú ag do chuid páistí a phlúir na bhfear óg?"
" Muise fuacht fada 'gus seachrán, agus oíche ar gach bothán,
Tá mé tinn fá mo chroí agus caithfidh mé luí."
"Céard a fhágfas tú ag do bhean phósta a dheartháirín ó?
Céard a fhágfas tú ag do bhean phósta a phlúir na bhfear óg?"
" Ifreann mar dhúiche aici, na Flaithis a bheith dúinte uirthi,
Tá mé tinn fá mo chroí agus bead go deo deo."
The Song of the Eel (It's closely related to an incest ballad found in Ireland, Scotland and in aEngland, where it's known as "Lord Randall". This Irish version is more mysterioius, though!)

" Fishing and fowling. Make my bed for me.
I'm sick in/to my heart and I'll have to lie down."
"What did you eat at your breakfast, my pet?

Why is this age-restricted?!
Some lurid symbolism in the poisoned eel?
What is the name of the accordion that is being played?
It looks like a small harmonium.
Careful child..!??

How beautiful. My translator says it is neither irish nor scottish gaelic, is this maybe norn?
Lullylover. I speak a little Scots Gaelic. It sounds like Irish Gaelic to me , but I’m no expert . There may also be regional differences.
@@mariapalmer5671 The Google-Translator does not recognize the language, You could be right und it might be a dialect. We have strong linguistic differences in our country also. Best wishes to Your Maria from Coburg Upper Franconia.

its no irish it scottish
Was i first written down in Gaelic?
La pronunciación es muy parecida al español , no es extraño nuestra lengua nació en zonas del Norte de origen celta como Cantabria y Asturias ,musica muy hermosa ,que nos transporta a través del tiempo
Old Irish is written different nothing like Spanish language it was the Saxons who basterized the Irish language in writing but they can't steal the real language from true Irish man's tongue and soul we are from druid Gael pagans Tál
@@An-Éire Yo no digo que se escriba igual o tenga correspondencia ,se sabe que Irlanda y escocia tienen una gran influencia anglosajona, pero cuando escuchas canciones en lengua vernácula ,parece a la fonética del español ,la pronunciación de la ,r , las vocales etc ,también hay más idiomas que tienen un parecido fonético con el español como la lengua griega
@@fcojavierblanco5280 the saxons have no influence on Irish culture and it was the Irish Gaels who brang Gaeilge Gaelic to Scotland and Isle of man the Scottish were pics from picland spoke pictish wiped out by the saxons the Irish Gaels called Scotland =Albain Irish brang Gaeilge Gaelic to Scotland. Scottish Highland are all of Irish bloodlines the Irish Gaels was first people on Iceland too 64 percent of Icelandic people have Irish Gael blood 🇮🇪
