I love the idea of me being "a map of them all" -- not only by heritage, but also because we are made of everyone we love and the marks we leave on them. If your sister says you have a restless soul, that's who you are to her. I have no Irish or English in my blood at all, and I'm also not told I have traveling feet etc., but it's amazing how this song is so much about Rose Betts, and at the same time it's about everyone.
I have no Irish blood either, but I DO have traveling feet--as I've been a nomad since 2016. Lovely to find a piece of myself in this song. We're all one...🥰
I have the Irish eyes and English hair, but I'm the rooted tree that the travelers come home to. I think we can all find a little of ourselves in this song.

Irish Eyes is my 7 week old baby's favourite song! His name is Patrick and we're Australian but we listen to Irish folk to remind us of our ancestry. Thanks for the poetic lyrics and your gorgeously piercing, liquid gold voice! ❤

This is such a powerful song. I didn't expect it to resonate with me so deeply, I don't even have the words to describe the chills running down my spine or the lift in my soul like thermals beneath a hawk's wings. For me, I have my father's Irish eyes and my mother's English hair. I can't wait to finish learning this song and sing it to them. I just hope I can do justice to the wonderful original and your lilting voice when I do.
My friend sent this to me this morning I am 65 years old and Irish descent. This is one of those songs you wish you had written ,it's beautiful and when I can get back to my ukele and guitar practise I going to sing this . Tu Rose just going to see if I can order your album. ❤🎉
My family has been here since the first immigrants, but i have some irish ancestry if i remember correctly, my eyes are the same blue-grey color and my hair is a similar brown, the urge to travel thrives in me, this song describes the parts of me i thought not possible to describe
My mother says I have Irish eyes Irish eyes, Irish eyes My mother says I have Irish eyes They go ever so blue under stormy skies But they're never so blue as when I let them cry My father says I have English hair English hair, English hair Brown like the bark of an oak somewhere Like the bed of a lake where the hemlock grows Like the thorn in the stem of an English rose I'm a map of the world and the ones before One foot in sea and one on shore Every step, every hope flung high I'm a map of them all with my Irish eyes My nana says I have travelling feet Travelling feet, travelling feet Slippers for princesses don't fit me But I dance to my own drum bright and bold And my travelling feet always get me home My sister says I've a restless soul Restless soul, restless soul Easy to catch, but I'm hard to hold Like a song on the wind that you caught one day I get under your skin, then I slip away I'm a map of the world and the ones before One foot in sea and one on shore Every step, every hope flung high I'm a map of them all with my Irish eyes My mother says I have Irish eyes Irish eyes, Irish eyes My mother says I have Irish eyes They go ever so blue I'm a map of the world and the ones before One foot in sea and one on shore Every step, every hope flung high I'm a map of them all with my Irish eyes

My great Grandma could speak it freely here and not be killed for it. Ever since I was a baby my mother would make sure that I had Irish/ Scottish music around me all the time. She taught me to love my heritage and the culture that we come from even the folk songs.

This song sounds like what I would of grown up hearing if my family hadn't immigrated to the US in the 1800s. I'm Scotch-Irish and German, so it sounds like all of the folk music of my culture, one that I could've had if my family had kept in touch with their roots.
I absolutely LOVE Rose Betts voice!!! My 5 and 7 year old granddaughters love her so much. Thank you, Rose, for sharing your mellifluous tone with the world. ❤🤍💛💚💙💜
This song calls deep to my soul ❤ I've got the Irish hair and eyes and am very thankful for my Irish roots. Now my beautiful children share the same features ❤
Omg I found the song, this makes me ball every time I hear it because I've lost my mom.... I've no siblings. But it makes me hold my head up even with tears leaking from my soul. Thank you for letting me walk with my ancestors with this song you've spoken to my soul.
Rose, you may not know this yet but I'm writing this from 5 years in the future. You continued to make this beautiful music and have become one of the top artists in the world. We need so many more people like you and it brings me happiness everyday listening to you. Congratulations on your success and may you continue to grow everyday.
No song in all its history will ever beat this one. I followed this song to the end and I was so happy with how it turned out that it made me cry. Congratulations Rose! You finished it :D
This song is really nice, I love it!! And I love how this song is inspiring people to talk about their own heritage too and creating their own verses! And it’s so cool that so many people can connect to it, I’m Ashkenazi Jewish and connect to it too and I think it’s really that’s cool!
Hello from Canada! My grandpa says I have forest doe eyes, Doe eyes, forest doe eyes My grandpa says I have forest doe eyes They go ever so bright under winter skies, Shining with a light that's wild but wise. My mother says I have my grandma’s hair Grandma’s hair, grandma’s hair Stormy, untamed my head always bare Dark like the forests of the great north Gleaming with snowflakes like fallen stars
This song is so beautiful. I resonated a lot with it. I was born in Canada(lived in the uk for 5 years) but my father is English and scottish and my mom is Irish, makes me feel close to my heritage and ancestors and sends shivers up my arms ❤
This is the only song that helps my 5-month-old daughter calm down when there is nothing else to soothe her. She loves this song so very much! Thank you so much for sharing your talent ❤
Love your song!!! It's so great!!! I'm going to use it at my lessons of English to help my students practise pronunciation! Thank you for your wonderful creation! All the best to you, dear Rose! ❤❤❤
My GOD I love this so much. The subtle drone note that starts at 00:33 drives me nuts. Then the drums that COMMAND respect and call for adventure! You make me smile so much when I hear your music!
I just sent this to my Nana and my Dad, who came to Canada from Ireland during the troubles. Most of our traditions are English, but my Dad and I are currently learning the Irish language (what's left of it) and embracing our Pagan culture. This song resonates so deeply within me. I can feel my ancestors - especially the women who came before me - when I listen to this. Thank you thank you thank you for being you and creating this beautiful song that is having a profound affect on so many 🍀❤️
Ireland ceased being slave owners and being controlled by Druids, thanks to St Patrick. The great Irish saints...these are the heritage of the Irish now.
In spite of my eyes being browner than English hair instead of Irish blue, there's something about this song that calls to me So glad i discovered your music ❤❤❤
My sweet friend sang this song at the school talent show. It was absolutely beautiful to listen to. She was also very beautiful singing this lovely song 😊
It reminds me of all the things I am, all the ppl I'm made up of, all the shoulders I stand on... that I'm not alone. Even in my failures and mistakes, imperfections, battles, and victories, there were many more generations of failures, mistakes, battles, and victories that came before me that I'll never know. I'm a miracle just being here. It makes me thankful just having the life I have, however broken it is. It's mine ❤
Thank you for your comment. It helped me leave a toxic relationship that would have taken away everything I want my future to be. May you get many goodnesses.
Oh my gosh!! My whole school was singing this song with their own verses!! We all sing this song so loudly!! We all love your music so so much!! Great job in all of your music! You are 💯 awesome! Keep up the great work😊😊
Ohh I love this so much! My great grandparents are from Ireland ❤ and my others ideas from Scotland England and Wales. Settled in Australia. Beautiful song I love it thank you 😍

I am so happy!! You released this song a day early. The song and your voice is beautiful. I love how the song progresses with the beat and instruments. Going to be listening to this on repeat. Such a catchy song.

Hello Rose! Your unique voice and respectable style are top-notch! So glad I found your UA-cam channel! Very refreshing entertainment. Many thanks to you for sharing your gifts.💐
Ethereal song. It makes me feel joy for life. This is one of those songs that makes me wish I was a film director bc I could see it working for so many scenes. Well done.
A modern classic, fully deserves to last forever. Beautifully crafted, builds to a proper climax… I’ve bought Nashville string set just to cover this song… it’s so very very good… and the lyric is every bit as good as the music…
PRECIOUS IRISH ROSE! SO VERY BELOVED, HEART, VOICE & SOUL. THANK YOU FOR STIRRING ME UP LIKE A CUP OF COFFEE. BLEST BE YOUR LIFE FOR MAKING EVERYONE'S BETTER! STAY WONDERFUL! CHEERS!
a beautiful song which calls us to remember we are connected to the world and every generation. We are people of one world hopefully we can embody this song so we may know peace
❤ such a wonderful Song. Playing it on my way to my new flat after being released from hospital. My body has been broken by autoimmune disease. I have outgrown my old body and a new life awaits. I am going to make the best of it while listening to Rose's magical music......so keep it coming, luv.

In spite of my eyes being browner than English hair instead of Irish blue, there's something about this song that calls to me
So glad i discovered your music ❤❤❤
I feel the exact same!
Yes I don’t know but this song strikes something inside it plays in the back of my brain on repeat!
Funny thing… my eyes are the color of a stormy sea (grey-green-blue) and my hair is brownish-gold
Yes! It's the poetry that calls. It's very beautifully written and her voice is angelic!
I have the Irish blue eyes, but have blonde hair.... but I agreed this song speaks to my soul
Thank you for this beautiful song. Our heritage matters. 💚💙
This a song that mothers will sing to their babies for generations ❤
Came here from Malinda's cover of this song--and I am LOVING this full version! Thanks for sharing it with us! 😁
What a wonderful song. This deserves so many more views.
My sweet friend sang this song at the school talent show. It was absolutely beautiful to listen to. She was also very beautiful singing this lovely song 😊
This song makes me tear up…reminds me of all the things I could’ve done, all the things I could’ve been, had I not held myself back❤
It reminds me of all the things I am, all the ppl I'm made up of, all the shoulders I stand on... that I'm not alone. Even in my failures and mistakes, imperfections, battles, and victories, there were many more generations of failures, mistakes, battles, and victories that came before me that I'll never know. I'm a miracle just being here.
It makes me thankful just having the life I have, however broken it is. It's mine ❤
Thank you for your comment. It helped me leave a toxic relationship that would have taken away everything I want my future to be. May you get many goodnesses.
If you’re still alive, it’s not too late!

This song is so beautiful and the added instruments make my heart dance and also cry

Discovered this song yesterday and I have heard it countless times already though not Irish by any means. This is a soul catching song. 😻😻😻
Ethereal song. It makes me feel joy for life. This is one of those songs that makes me wish I was a film director bc I could see it working for so many scenes. Well done.

A modern classic, fully deserves to last forever.
Beautifully crafted, builds to a proper climax… I’ve bought Nashville string set just to cover this song… it’s so very very good… and the lyric is every bit as good as the music…
theres just one problem.. IT ENDS!!

That's what the loop feature is for :)
