    Brian does this song justice. It's a lament about longing to go hame and see the mountains where the songwriter was born. He sings it true to the words. You can hear the longing in his voice.

      In fact, this song is not a lament! The emotions are strong, but joyful. This was supposedly written when John Cameron returned to the Highlands after being away for years, and he felt this joy surge up inside of him as he looked over the mountains!

    What a splendid rendition of this song composed in Argyll Gaidhlig by John Cameron (1822-1898). Brian's enunciation is indeed top-notch"
    Perhaps someone can inform Brian that the song's eight verses are available under its Gaidhlig title in Wikipedia.

    Also, the view that inspired John's song can be seen in Dunach1 on UA-cam. He had disembarked from the Glasgow steamer about half a mile behind the camera position and composed his song while walking towards his Highland home. He knew the young William Lawrie before he became the well known bagpipe composer.

    Regrettably a pop version of this grand song. This is a majestic song which should be sung as such.

    This song, I believe, was written by John Cameron of Tigh a' phuirt, a small hamlet between Ballachulish and Glencoe. John worked as a manager for Coopers, the Glasgow grocers and was walking past the Ballachulish Ferry pier on his way home having come off the Glasgow boat at the New Pier (an Cidhe Ur) and as he walked round the bend of the road on the old A828 road just east of the Ballachulish ferry, he saw the vista of the Glencoe hills before him, a view he would not sell for tons of gold!

      It's beautiful, I know it as Hush hush, a song about Scottish highland Clearances. Is it connected, do you know?

      Rather the opposite - "
      " . . . sometimes known as "Hush, Hush, Time To Be Sleeping" (Scots: "Hush, Hush, Time Tae Be Sleepin") is a Scottish folk song and lullaby written by Jim McLean and set to the tune of the Gaelic air, "Chi Mi Na Mòrbheanna" (literally "I will see the great mountains", or "The Mist Covered Mountain"). It follows the experiences of crofters during the Highland Clearances through eviction and emigration."

    The Rankins do a great version of this too though their Gaelic does have a transatlantic twang. I do love them, though.
