Thank you! Will I ever see the Highlands? Will I ever visit Islay? Will I ever breathe .... .... the wonderful scent of blooming heather? Will I ever feel being free ..... .... and roam your natures beauties, Scotland? Slainte mha, Laphroaig!
This beautifully simple performance is made perfect by the babe in arms. What tasteful accompaniment and videoing. I hope you are so happy, Julie, you deserve it. Your voice is pure and from the heart.
Julie is such a National treasure. Our modern world is rotting to the core in the West. Its fantastic women like Julie who our young generation should be guided towards as role models. A proud loving mother, darling wife and talented hard worker with a love of her culture and heritage. Instead our young women are spoon fed Miley Cyrus and the Kardasians.
Barry Bignut A great point. We are being bombarded with poison and people take to it because it appears captivating. This is as wholesome as it gets hence why it is so beautiful.
I saw her husband Eamon live with Danu in Davis California several years ago. He was a wonderful story teller and great musician. It is heartwarming to see such a beautiful, talented and happy family. I wish them the best of luck for the future.
Though Duncan (the fiddle player) isn't a relative is actually Wolfstones fiddle player too, he used to be with Ivan Drever Wolfstones former lead singer, he partly forms a duo with Ivan, whom I have personally met is Duncan, probably the most phenomenal celtic music fiddle player across the world without any doubts from me personally.
My love is on the high seas One fine evening at the beginning of May when the bats were in the sky I heard a young girl who was tearful sing in the shade of the green branches. The sun was setting on the sea and no star had risen into the sky when the maiden sang sadly "My love is on the high seas". The night-time dew began to come down and its drops gently bent the flowers, The wind blew a flagrant breeze, life and refreshment to every meadow. The girl tuned the melody of her song soft and sweet like the dew in June and this chorus kept on coming up: "My love is on the high seas" The day got dark and the stars shone, the moon sailed through the clouds of the sky. The maiden sat, distressed by sorrow, with no desire for sleep or rest. I drew close to this wonderful young woman who was singing about her love who had sailed overseas. Oh, her sad plaintive call was sweet-sounding: "My love is on the high seas". By this music I was willingly drawn close to the brown-haired girl with warm eyes as she prayed to the Lord "protect my love on the high seas". Her heart was breaking with love when I took her by the hand "be away from tears, your love is saved, I came safely across the high seas". Tha mo ghaol air aird a'chuain Feasgar ciùin an tus a'chèitein nuair bha 'n ialtag anns na speuran chualaim rìbhinn òg 's i deurach seinn fo sgàil nan geugan uain'. Bha a'ghrian 'sa chuan gu sìoladh 's reult cha d'éirich anns an iarmailt nuair a sheinn an òigh gu cianail "Tha mo ghaol air àird a'chuain". Thòisich dealt na h-oidhch' ri tùirling 's lùb am braon gu caoin na flùrain Shèid a'ghaoth 'na h-oiteag chùbhraidh beatha 's ùrachd do gach cluan. Ghleus an nighneag fonn a h-òrain sèimh is ciùin mar dhriùchd an Òg-mhìos 'a bha an t-sèisd seo 'g éirigh 'n còmhnaidh "Tha mo ghaol air àird a'chuain". Chiar an latha is dheàrrs 'na reultan, sheòl an rè measg neul nan speuran. Shuidh an òigh, 'bròn ga lèireadh, 's cha robh dèigh air tàmh no suain. Theann mi faisg air reult nan òg-bhean sheinn mu 'gaol air chuan 'bha seòladh. O bu bhinn a caoidhrean brònach "Tha mo ghaol air àird a'chuain". Rinn an ceòl le deòin mo thàladh dlùth do rìbhinn donn nam blàth-shùil 's i ag ùrnaigh ris an Àrd-Rìgh "Bìon mo ghràdh 'th' air àird a'chuain". Bha a cridh' le gaol gu sgàineadh nuair a ghlac me fhèin air làimh i. "Siab o dheòir, do ghaol tha sàbhailt, thill mi slàn bhàrr àird a'chuain".
Congratulations to Pixar/Disney for their movie "Brave" -- featuring songs by Julie Fowlis -- being nominated today by the Academy Awards for best animated movie.
Totally unexpected, a very beautiful and precious surprise: a very dear friend of mine drew my attention to this heart warming and tender love song, while he is far away too, but knowing that we remain bound together in Gaelic music
Technically speaking there's 3 variations (more broadly speaking rather) of the Gaelic language, it's more a family of languages. Scots being Gáidhlig (thus no e to change the sound of the a). Irish Gaelige) Middle Irish - Manx or Gaelg.
Beautiful little girl! Apparently my grandmother would sing these songs to my mother and aunt and uncle when they were little. We now native American in the mix, so I hope my niece sings both types of songs to my little grand neice. So wonderful.
Simply beautiful. The nusic, the scene, everything. The child is very, very, lucky to grow up surrounded like this. Heritage , music, good parents, a sense of belonging. It's womderful to see happy people doing what they do. Here's to you..
The feeling like that I got from watching the Outlaw King on Netflix (actually Robert I's mother Isobella Huntingdon was a descendant of the Gaels so there's every possibility he would have spoken not only Norman French mostly, but then Latin (since all historical records were written in Latin of course back then as well as Gáidhlig/Gaelic and English (his father having fought actually with Edward I. Actually a descendant myself of that very Clan (hence using the coat of arms as my photo).
My favourite rendition of this song was the one they performed at Dunfermline Abbey...until now! This is as about as beautiful as it can get. Simply heavenly.
From France. Very beautiful lament (even if I don't understand the lyrics I understood the meaning of the song). Obviously your daughter doesn't need this song to sleep. Protect yourself and god keep you.
What real talent looks like, also I mean you want to hear the likes of Griogal Cridhe if you think that's tough ua-cam.com/video/WV7TPzNOuGk/v-deo.html (Alba being Scotlands Gáidhlig name like Éireann in Ireland being the É in RTÉ Irelands equivalent of the BBC Eirinn in Scotland being the same) the most famous Gáidhlig poem that comes from ever written this being about it ua-cam.com/video/ImQzmvCv5fQ/v-deo.html though this isn't sad ua-cam.com/video/B-NozsHt7Y0/v-deo.html
A mother's love's a blessing and this mother has a voice of an angel,often listen to Julie on BBC Alba although i only know about three words in Gaelic.
Simply beautiful no words allways great pleasure to listen to the extremely talented julie fowlis one of my favourite scottish gaelic musician and vocalist ♡♡♡
i have listened to her since her first album and i now have the privilege of second row center orchestra seats at a performance in Troy NY in April 2013. What an amazing treat!
Love to you & yours. We will go and fight the war. Pick up those fallen. The Other will not do this so easily again. With you, yet unseen. In the name of Heart, and Goddess, bye for now
I love your child the little darling sweetheart love our child is in heaven but I love your darling little precious you are a stunning singer your voice is so beautiful God bless you richly and your little precious
Her little one is so lucky that she gets Gaelic lullaby songs. I think this language is really great for singing.
How blessed is the infant being surrounded by such love and gorgeous music
Lol was thinking the exact thing how lucky he or she is to have a mother that can sing her lullabies to sleep every night
Quite lovely indeed ❤
That little girl is going to be steeped in Gallic music by the time she becomes an adult. He's hoping she carries on the glorious tradition, generation to generation.
It's 2020 that Dear babe is 8 now what songs she has heard these last 8 years! In Scotland stay safe and healthy!
I love that the wee bairn sleeps through the lulaby. God bless ye!
there's 5 minutes of everything we must fight for, right here.
I think any guy with good taste could fall in love with Julie Fowlis, she is so pretty and talented.
I'm crying fam. Innocence like this is so rare. This baby warms my black heart
Your heart can't be that black then.
Wow... just think about the wonderful lullabies heard by that lucky little girl :)

What the fuck does that mean? Shit I wonder you speakie ingles
Stephen Murphy ...well said...this is fine music indeed ...we are all lucky to participate.
@@homesickclifford1966 Being that he is American, he likely speaks a more pure English then you.
Facts.
You got me crying...
Thank you!
Will I ever see the Highlands?
Will I ever visit Islay?
Will I ever breathe ....

Will I ever feel being free .....

Slainte mha, Laphroaig!

Barry Bignut A great point. We are being bombarded with poison and people take to it because it appears captivating. This is as wholesome as it gets hence why it is so beautiful.
She dedicates her whole life to the preservation and continuation of the culture of her people. She's a world treasure, my friend.
I saw her husband Eamon live with Danu in Davis California several years ago. He was a wonderful story teller and great musician. It is heartwarming to see such a beautiful, talented and happy family. I wish them the best of luck for the future.
Seen her once supporting Runrig before this song though lol, she's amazing is Jules!
Though Duncan (the fiddle player) isn't a relative is actually Wolfstones fiddle player too, he used to be with Ivan Drever Wolfstones former lead singer, he partly forms a duo with Ivan, whom I have personally met is Duncan, probably the most phenomenal celtic music fiddle player across the world without any doubts from me personally.
@@jeremysmith54565 Nice ballad sung by a lovely voice Scotland be proud of Julie!
The bairn is in seventh heaven
Couldn't find this sheet music anywhere so I transcribed it and arranged it myself for Celtic harp. Julie's version is an inspiration
Please share, if possible! 🙏 Would really appreciate it.
Oh Jesus, that bought tears to my eyes. When my young folk were just babies, I would play my small pipes to lull them down to slumber.
Awesome song Julie!
You've got a beautiful baby!

Just drank a bit and her voice with the Gaelic words and the way she sang to her child just made me weepy for real.
Congratulations to Pixar/Disney for their movie "Brave" -- featuring songs by Julie Fowlis -- being nominated today by the Academy Awards for best animated movie.
I could fall in love with her on her voice alone. Add her beauty, and I’m head over heels.
I am actually supposed to be somewhere right now.. somewhere awesome, if I have to be honest... but instead, I'll hit replay...ONE more time
you dont have to be honest

Another precious gem from Ms. Fowlis. What a one-person treasure trove she is. I feel so blessed.
That little babies has no excuses for not taking a nap. What a voice.
