    My family comes from Ireland, on both sides. Went through the horrors of the civil war in Ireland: North against South, Protestant against Catholic. Heard this song on Oregon Public Radio more than 30 years ago, and it brought home the reality of my beautiful homeland. I've followed Mary Black ever since. This song brings me back to the beauty of my people and my land. And, forever, she will be the iconic voice of Ireland and of peace.

      I am on your list too, Thomas. I am 76 and I have never heard a voice quite so wonderful. I cannot tell you what it does to my soul when she sings, but it is strong enough that I have asked my Lord to allow me to visit Ireland some day, as it must be a wonderful place to produce such a marvelous voice. I suspect that I will not get to visit in this life, but surely in the next when I am home with my dear Savior. Then I will surely visit Ireland.

    I bought my first Mary Black CD because of "the Dimming of the Day" Since I became a FAN, I have everything she has done, seen her 18 times, instrumental in getting her to Portsmouth, Va. (where she performed in front of 1700) went on an Irish Cruise to see her and many great Irish artist. You might say she has won me over. LOVE HER.

    I first heard Mary Black sing this ballad on the radio, I think on Thistle and Shamrock, on St. Patrick's Day in 1984. It was a live recording of a concert with DeDanaan in Charleston, S.C. The singing was so heartfelt and pure. At the end of the song, there was perhaps 7 or 8 seconds of silence before a sustained applause. Much thanks for posting,

    Dreaming in the night, I saw a land where no man had to fight
    Waking in your dawn, I saw you crying in the morning light
    Lying where the Falcons fly, they twist and turn all in you e'er blue sky
    Living on your western shore, saw summer sunsets asked for more
    I stood by your Atlantic sea and I sang a song for Ireland...
    In our memories, will remain two voices for this hymn: Luke and Mary !
    Traduction FR:
    Marchant toute une journée,
    Près des hautes tours où les faucons construisent leurs nids,
    et volent de leurs ailes d'argent,
    Ils sentent dans leurs poumons, l'appel de la liberté,
    Je vis une tête noire contre le ciel,
    Où des rochers escarpés s'effondrent dans la mer,
    Sur votre rive à l’Ouest,
    J'ai vu se lever le soleil de l’été, j'en voulais plus,
    Et me tenant au bord de votre Océan Atlantique,
    J'ai chanté un chanson pour l'Irlande.

    They say this epic song was composed by an English man and my hat is off to him. However NOBODY can sing it like Mary Black. She just has that voice that has no comparison with these lines. Everytime I listen to it, I am in Ireland which I think the composer had in mind eventhough he was far away. I live thousands of miles from Ireland. 🇺🇸

I was very happy im my childhood, so, this song makes me travel to a world that will never come back. Great song, great interpretation.

    I first heard MAry Black on the tape that little folk clubs play before a concert--at the Pursuit of Happiness in L:iberty New York. Bill Morrissey was the artist that night and all I could think about was the song by a woman that i had just heard minutes ago. It bugged me so much that I asked the owner of the club who it was and he dutifully went through the tape and I learned that the artist was MAry Black, and the song I heard that night was called ANACHIE GORDON, from her first album. The search was on after that and the the internet came along just in time and here I am with as much MAry Black music as I can handle!
