    Fuadaichean (Clearances)
    Guma slàn le stacan Mhiùlaigh
    Is tràighean Shanndraidh bhàn,
    Agus geòla làn gu gualainn
    A’ bualadh tuath air an làn.
    Is mise Dòmhnall Francis MacNèil.
    ’S e an t-iasgach an smior tha nam chnàimh.
    Mo bheòshlaint’ le clèibh mu na tràighean
    Gu dachaidh is teaghlach bhith slàn.
    Tha mi leantail ri saothair mo shinnsear
    A’ strìth air iomall a’ chuàn
    Ach gu truagh bidh sin air a spìonadh
    Agus crìdh’ mo bhith-beò air thoirt bhuam.
    Air gach stac is bogh’ tha mi eòlach
    Bho m’ òige a’ togail mo chiùirt,
    Ceòl-mara an eunlaith mun cuairt orm,
    Fìrinn na mara nam chluais;
    Sàil nam fhèithean ga ghluasad
    As an iarmailt gu grunnd a’ chuain
    Torradh nam bàgh a bhiodh buan dhomh -
    Fir-brèige an ìmpis thoirt bhuam.
    Aineolas muinntir nam bailtean-
    Fasan gan tàladh gun smuain
    Gu sloightearachd aig am bi buaidh orm -
    Teachd-an-tìr air a sguabadh bhuam.
    Gura daor a cheannaich mo shinnsear’
    Cead air am fearann a bhuain
    Ach a-nis bidh mo chànan ’s mo dhualchas
    Air a sgrìobadh bhuam gun truas.
    Mo dhòigh-beath’ air a mheas gu suarach
    Gun ghuth air gach cleachdadh bu dual -
    Fuadach gar bualadh san linn seo,
    Beul-bòidheach a’ choigrich toirt buaidh.
    Ach togamaid àrd ar n-òran
    Bho Nis gu Lindisfarne.
    Chan e fir-tàilisg a th’ annainn
    Gar gluasad mun cuairt air clàir.
    Tha ar n-òran a’ strìth ri na siantan,
    “Mayday” dol a-mach air an làn.
    Ar cuid chloinne len còirichean dìonta
    Cha dìobair sinne gu bràth.

    How the Gaelic tongue stirs the depths of the soul and forever connects the exiled hearts of Alba to a common cause. This song is hauntingly surrel and stirs the chords deep within the soul.

    Strikingly beautiful. The best political protest song since Parcel of Rogues. Even when the Gaelic lyrics are translated into English they say even more that The Clearances Again (which is a splendid song). Well done; all of you. And may providence see that your way of life prevails.

    Really a beautiful song but a very sad message. We spent a few holidays on the Hebrides and love the traditional culture and way of life. So sad all this societies disappear.
    Here, in the Netherlands, fishing is reduced a lot last year by the goverment. The sea is now full of windmills for energy. The culture of old fishing villages disappears very quickly. So sad. 😢

    From a Scot who has lived and worked up here in Iceland for over 20 years was deeply moved by this fine song and vid. Having seen a bidding for fishing rights and quota system systematically ruin small fishing communities in the Westfjords that was imposed by career politicians without a clue in Rekyjavík I can sympathise with your cause. Full disclosure, I'm a card-carrying member of the SNP.

    • @cmcc3721
      @cmcc3721 7 місяців тому

      Card carrying member of the SNP? Shows how much you are out of touch with the general population of Scotland in 2023. I'm all for Independence but i ABSOLUTELY refuse to vote for a party filled to the brim with career politicians that ONLY use the independence card to get re elected. Anyone that has taken the time understands that Indy is at the bottom of the Scottish Nationalists list of priorities since Salmond was ousted. An absolute disaster of a party for a young generation of Scots.

    • @brhbrh6326

    As long as the Highlands and Islands are seen as a playground for the wealthy English and others,it continue to be abused. Westminster can stop all protests by flooding the place with yacht owners, deerhunters, military bases and other English only pleasure pursuits. At the same time, make any last vestiges of Gaidhlig life and culture increasingly difficult and marginalised whilst promoting an influx of part time white settlers in the Gaidhlig heartlands. This is not accidental, but is at the core of colonial policy for centuries. Stronger and stronger resistance needed at every level, but do not rely on help from the Scottish puppet Assembly in Edinburgh.

    Hello, could anyone provide a bit more context? Does this refer to the 17-18 century clearances or is it a reference to some current initiative or law that will forcibly remove the owners from their land? I live in central Europe and have no knowledge of this...

    • @raemondbradford1629
      @raemondbradford1629 8 місяців тому +4

      Hopefully someone else could explain more about this, but I believe it is related to protests about flawed attempts to protect marine areas (by creating some Highly Protected Marine Areas - HPMAs) around Scotland which would have badly affected coastal fishing communities.
