- Her Mantle So Green, sung by Sinead O'Connor.
A song about a young man who goes of to war leaving behind his true love, on returning he finds her and finds out if she has been true and still loves him. I have have tried to capture that with a more fantasy / Medieval touch to rather than the Nepolionic period it's from or so I belive.
Quote
As I went out walking, one morning in June
To view the fair fields, and the valleys in bloom;
I spied a pretty fair maid, she appeared like a queen,
With her costly fine robes and her mantle so green
Says I, my pretty fair maid, wont you come with me,
We'll both join in wedlock, and married we'll be;
I will dress you in fine linen, you'll appear like a queen,
With your costly fine robes and your mantle so green.
Says she, now my young man, you must be excused,
For I'll wed no man, so you must be refused;
To the green woods I will wander and shun all men's view
For the boy I love dearly lies in fame-ed waterloo.
Well if you're not married, say your lover's name
I fought in that battle, so I might know the same.
Draw near to my garment, and there you will see
His name is embroidered on my mantle so green.
In the ribbon of her mantle, there I did behold,
His name and his surname, in letters of gold
Young William O'Riley, appeared in my view
He was my chief comrade back in fame-ed waterloo
And as he lay dying, I heard his last cry
“If you were here lovely Nancy I'd be willing to dieâ€
And as I told her this story, in anguish she flew,
And the more that I told her, the paler she grew
So I smiled on my Nancy, 'twas I broke your heart,
In your fathers garden, that day we did part
And this is the truth, and the truth I declare,
Oh here's your love token the gold ring I wear.

I do know own the song or pictures but tried to tell the story of a true love. I find this version quite sad at times IMHO. Sinead is perect for this song and captures it so very, very well.
Sitting here solemnly serenading and thinking of Sinead who has just passed away today. No words! Grew up listening to her. She’s been through a lot. 💔
She was my warrior queen 👑❤❤ We went through the same hell, she was my strength ❤🎉
1 week and her loss is still raw.. I have a special feeling that her journey is not over.. something about her is left yet to be revealed.. she is gone away, not to return here, but, like all Baggins Tales, and Fellowships between The Earth Mother and the Mantle, she will be around.. May my words heal and provide some peace from the heartache.
I cannot believe it"s been a week since Sinead's passing. For me the time of constant mourning. Time fails to heal this enormous wound.
@@wickyhendy74she is still here ❤, on her way to the other world
@@wickyhendy74 It's a month now and the passing of dearest Sinead still sits heavily with me. Though distant, we were contemporaries who followed the same path from Catholicism to Islam with many byways in between.
Sinead is one of the few vocalists whose voice can shake and still sound as solid as a mountain. There is no one like her
Unlike most singers you can make out every word in every song of hers.
C'est normal elle est la perfection de la voix ❤❤❤
I struggle to find words for the loss of Sinead O'connor. Such a sad passing. We will remember you, Sinead.
Nobody sings like Sinead O'Conner. Nobody. Her voice is so beautiful it makes the hair walk up the back of my neck.
Sinead's voice is distilled depth & clarity - without rival - and every word she sings is such pure joy, love, passion, sorrow or grief, everyone who listens to her sound feels that emotion within themselves as their own.
It's unavoidable. Her voice will ring from the mountaintops when she decides to rule the world and we'll have no choice but to follow her. 😊
The pipes do the job too
Farewell, Sinead. May your journey be peaceful. I hope you serenade those on the other side, so they can hear your wonderful voice once again.
Sinead O Connor ... Is the greatest female singer not alone in Ireland but in the World !!!!! Her voice is so beautiful and haunting !!!!! May she now rest in peace 🙏 ... James O Connor ...
I honestly think Sinead might have one of the best voices in the history of recorded music. I mean, just listen to her. Consider how easily her songs transcend genres and trends. There‘s nothing she can‘t do, her voice is soft, powerful, velvety all at the same time. Incredible talent and mastership of her craft. Not to mention she has always stayed true to herself and is a huge inspiration to many of us.
Whole heartedly agree.
totally agree with every word, she tries to shoot straight in the deepest sense unlike almost every other human and her pure soul and pure voice are entwined
Agreed. Truly, and well said.
@@JayJay-wg5ex Very well observed and said.
She's brilliant she could make a song out of anything and win Grammy awards, she could sing in her shower or her bed and also get grammy awards, she has true talent, as well as true beauty, love you, R.I.P. Sinead and your son
Rest in Peace me Darling
you stood up for me ,a child in a catholic kids home being sexually abused ,you helped me stay a fighter ,its hard to say good bye to your hero ...
This song must be her masterpiece,God rest her soul,she is missed by millions😢
RIP Sinaed , 😢, the world has lost a brave and fabled heart and soul
RIP Sinéad . You made my childhood special and you will live on through your music. Tá mo chroí briste 💔
Since the passing of this wonderful singer, who's voice has no equal, I've found so many more awesome pieces. I will always love her
Sinead is a true Irish ancient soul her voice is like comfort for the soul.
Amazing Voice... Stunning Music!!!💙💙💙💙💙
I envy Ireland that they have Sinéad. A great fighter for freedom, civil rights, voicing without fear her protest against all kinds of prejudice. Love her as a person, a woman, a mother and as a very talented artist that she really is. Can’t wait for her next record - the music she unfolds and lyrics are immaculate (epic!)
🎉🎉❤❤❤
Thank you for speaking so highly of her before her passing. She will be remembered and missed by ireland. 🇮🇪 best wishes from a fellow irish woman.
❤ from an Irishman. My heart breaks listening to Sinead now. .. but her voice , has always moved me like no other artist. What a Treasure we have lost. . Rest in Happiness Sinead. ❤
RIP beautiful one and only Sinead!
Rest in peace Sinéad🙏🏼 one beautiful voice she had
Sinead is a warrior for truth and respect. She will live on in our memories. The Holy Spirit has her now. Sinead is in peace.
God Have Mercy On Sinead O'connor's Soul May She Rest in Peace.
Rip Sinead. You made a difference to this world. One of my favourite songs xxoo 💞
RIP Sinead, beautiful singer. This is my favorite of hers.
To me Sinead is the greatest Irish singer of all time.
We will always love you, Sinead R.I.P ❤😢😢
God bless you Sinead........ Irelands finest female voice ever.

R.I.P. Sinead a stor - may God rest ye gentle.
❤
Sinéad’s voice shows strength and gentleness.. rip warrior and child
Well lve discovered her now she's gone to the land she's singing about ,
Mythological being she will exist, people like her never really die ,
Superb, what an angel voice of Sinead ,May God grant you the beautiful paradise of heaven with your son.
And now we must ask for the resting of her soul. May God rest ye gentle, Sinead a stor.
Remembered for other, later songs, Sinead was a superb singer of traditional songs like this. A sad loss of a shining singer with a voice that resonated with atmosphere
Синеад, ти си јединствена била и остала!!! Не поновљива. Бол испевава најлепше мелодије. Скоро смо вршњакиње, а тако смо сличне. Обожавам те од твог почетка до краја!!! Слава теби!!! 🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇💔💔💔🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸
So ein wunderschönesLied❤❤❤🎉🎉❤❤❤
Holy Mother of Jesus! I have been listening to this song for over 5 years now, since my husband died in 2014 and just this Christmas morning I understood it`s meaning! :
He wasn`t dead at all. It was him that came back to his Nancy! It was "the old him" that died in Waterloo! "HE IS ALIVE" ...... Merry Christmas to you all
Irish blood is sacred don’t let it be replaced
Love you so much sinead R.I.P. beautiful soul sadly missed
Sinead O`Connor is sensational! Love her music! One of the greatest Irish singers!!!!
Uma irlandesa pura. É assim a minha cantora favorita e a melhor de todos os tempos. Uma altruísta que ajudava os outros sem receber em troca. Se depender de mim, não será esquecida principalmente pelo legado lindo e incrível que nos deixou. Te amarei e ouvirei sempre. " Sinéad O'Connor para sempre " Adeus minha linda e sempre em paz com seu menino. 🙏🕊🎶👩👦
Your voice is poetry
An amazing song but the singer is just incredible ... You can feel her emotion in her voice
Sinead - such a pure voice - a voice of a fighter .

Ha Ha you sound sweet, keep your illusions.
@@lauralarrett461 ..while the Roman Catholic Church ( HQ in Rome, not Dublin) evades paying the true cost of the misery it's representatives heve visited on the ordinary Irish people over centuries. Take your choice Laura.

One of the finest songs by unequaled Sinead. The video is very lovely and so well made. But when she sings about the gold ring and it shows Sauron's ring, I have to lol every time I see it
I have always loved this song. Sinead's voice is superb for this song. Truely brilliant

Awesome, beautiful-Just Love Irish music-soothing and love the instruments also-love it ALL!
So beautiful!
Greatest of all time ❤️
Beautiful voice. This Irishman from Bangor, Co Down loves listening to Sinead.
Sadly she was right on many issues but still could have done more - but we Irish are rebellious and you can thank 800 years of English aggression and colonialism for that
Sister of Love searching her path through the dschungle of life, kowing where her home is, singing like a goddess!😇❤🙏
Her voice and these instruments!
I hope that when I die the there are angels that sing this angelic. Love you Sinead. Marry me
steady on, gary
As an American of both ancestries (who may or may not have spent the evening conversing with a bit of vodka), while the Polish can endure any misery, you can never break the Irish.
emu314159 same here. Half Irish, Half Polish American......sooooo drawn to my Celtic roots and music
mantel so green ....what a fantastic song ....my favourite forever. thank you Sinaed
The voice of Sinead and the beauty of Liv are unsurpassing
