The well-known musician Liam Ó Maonlaí singing a magical version of Do Bhí Bean Uasal / Carrickfergus.
Excellent version, and always promoting our 1st language 👍🇮🇪
Liam is an amazing artist, just hope I see him some day
The most beautiful pronounciation of Gailge xxxxxx
What an absolutely brilliant rendition of a beautiful song by a brilliant musician - it brings a tear to my eye every time I listen to Liam sing
It is so beautiful. We sung a part of it, inspired from that version in our interpretation with Mearbhall. But not as good as Liam Ó Maonlaí.
Oh I remember seeing Hothouse Flowers back when "Don't Go" was in the charts, at Wembley Arena, he sang this on his own bare footed and I was enthralled by his voice, still am.
Ahoy Liam,
Tis a brilliant version of a rare song. Aye! Callum
Always class. Never fails to add value to anything he does in my opinion. Sheer talent.
Wow. Just ... wow. The man plays everything with passion and sensitivity.
The best version ever and I know my trad music. Brill.
What an astonishingly beautiful rendition ❤
English translation
I
A lady was betrothed to me for a while
And she refused me, oh my hundred woes
I went to towns with her
And she made a cuckold (or a fool ) of me before the world,
If I had got that head of hers into the church
And if I were again n command of myself,
But now I’ weak and sore, and there’s no getting of a cure for me,
And my people will be weeping after me
II
I wish I had you in Carrickfergus
not far from that place ‘Quiet Town”
Sailing over the deep blue waters
my bright love from a northern sky
For the seas are deep, love, and I can’t swim over
And neither have I wings to fly,
I wish I met with a handy boatman,
Who would ferry over my love and I
III
The cold and the heat are going together [in me]
and I can’t quench my thirst
And if I took my oath from November to February
I wouldn’t be ready until Michaelmas
I’m seldom drunk though I’m never sober!
A handsome rover from town to town.
But now I am dead and my days are over
Come Molly, my little darling, now lay me down
Gaelic
Wow...im sure im of irish ancestry....this gets me in my heart.........sung beautifully.....

Just watched Boardwalk Empire and wanted to check out the background of Carrickfergus, pretty cool this was uploaded on my birthday.
Mesmerizingly beautiful.It's like listening to a divine messenger.
I cry to this personification of emotion xxxxxx

I
Do bhí bean uasal seal dá lua liom,
‘s do chuir sí suas díomsa faraoir géar;
Do ghabhas lastuas di sna bailte móra
Ach d’fhag sí ann é os comhair an tsaoil.
Dá bhfaighinnse a ceannsa faoi áirsí an teampaill,
Do bheinnse gan amhras im ‘ábhar féin;
Ach anois táim tinn lag is gan fáil ar leigheas agam.
Is beidh mo mhuintir ag gol im’ dhéidh.
II
I wish I had you in Carrickfergus
Ní fada ón áit sin go Baile Uí Chuain(1)/Sailing over the deep blue waters/ I ndiaidh mo ghrá geal is í ag ealó uaim./For the seas are deep, love, and I can’t swim over
And neither have I wings to fly,
I wish I met with a handy boatman,
Who would ferry over my love and I.
III
Tá an fuacht ag teacht is an teas ag tréigint
An tart ní féidir liom féin é do chlaoi,
Is go bhfuil an leabhar orm ó Shamhain go Fébur
Is ní bheidh sí reidh liom go Féil’ Mhichíl;/I’m seldom drunk though I’m never sober!
A handsome rover from town to town.
But now I am dead and my days are over
Come Molly, a stóirín, now lay me down
Eistigh, ach antis, I wish I had you in carrick Fergus, sailing over the deep ocean which I knew well, handy boat man, plauging mo cra mo croi, should I sloud seldom drunk seldom sober, and my days are over the the day be done

A Silver Moment,
The Eternal Center of the Triskel Spiral.
I was there,
And here
Where I am now.
The Bridge synapsed,
It’s Destinations
Rolled Amoebius Strips
Blending our Ancestral journeys
Into this valid, and necessary plane.
We Are That We Are
The Eyes of God,
Doing His Sacred Dirtywork.
