Lyrics
With our nets and gear we're faring
On the wild and wasteful ocean
It's out there on the deep
We harvest and reap our bread
As we hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Oh it was a fine and a pleasant day
Out of Yarmouth harbour I was faring
As a cabin boy on a sailing logger
We were following the shoals of herring
Now you're up on deck, you're a fisherman
You can swear and show a manly bearing
Take your turn on watch with the other fellows
As you're hunting for the shoals of herring
Now we fished the Swarth and the Broken Bank
I was cook and I'd a quarter-sharing
And I used to sleep standing on me feet
As we hunted for the shoals of herring
We left the home grounds in the month of June
And for canny Shiels we soon were bearing
With a hundred cran of the silver darlings
That we've taken from the shoals of herring
In the stormy seas and the living gales
Just to earn your daily bread you're faring
From the Dover Straits to the Faroe Islands
And you're hunting for the shoals of herring
Well I earned me keep and I paid me way
And I earned the gear that I was wearing
Sailed a million miles, caught ten million fishes
We were hunting after shoals of herring
You're net float men now boy you're on the move
And you're learning all about sea-faring
That's your education, scraps of navigation
As you hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Night and day the seas were daring
Come wind or tide or winter gale
Sweating or cold, growing up,
Growing old or dying
As you hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Luke Kelly had one of the greatest male voices in the history of recorded music. Just an incredibly powerful, versatile singer.
The greatest singer singing the greatest song.
Luke Kelly's voice raises me up everytime, it is like magic having such a wonderful voice and expression. God bless Luke. I am so happy to be able to hear him whenever I want. Regards to all other fans of great Luke Kelly.
There has never been anyone and probably never will be anyone who gives such outstanding renditions of Ewan Mc Coll's work. RIP Luke!!
Try Robin Hey.
How the beautiful voice, my boy, dearLuke. I miss you very much. You 're the best of the best. I think many people think same the thing...💖💖💖👍☘🇮🇪
Wonderful Song A Tribute To All The Hardy Fishermen From The British Isles And Around The World!🤗🚢🎣🇬🇧🇮🇪
True a tribute to them all, but Ireland is not a British Isle. Pay respect to all all us Gaels too.
Ewan sang his own song grandly. But Luke had the voice of the gods. What a gift these men were.
I am on the boat what a singer and story teller AND THE VOICE CRAZY
Beautiful song - yes BUT ……..THAT VOICE!!!!
The VERY best version of this song ever recorded.
Offcourse by Luke...
It might sound trite, but I truly believe Luke's voice transcends time
Without a doubt 👍
Tried to get his autograph at half time in Brum in 1960s. He told me to eff off! What a talent.
MAYBE IT WAS THE WAY YOU WENT UP TO HIM
Did he really?
I fished for almost 40 years! This is brilliant!
sgtcrab1 Thank you my friend. Great song by a great singer.
I'm Scottish and Irish and I love this song and this is the best veraion
Remember 31/01/1984 - 34 years R.I.P.
I've fished long lining swordfish, shrimped, beach seined, and caught sharks. Somehow, Luke catches the mood of it all, not just the words, but the spirit. He is one of a kind.
Luke. What a voice!
I do love this song! God's Grace on our Luke Kelly 🙏✝️🙏☘️🇮🇪👍🏻
Luke had great power in his voice, as shown here. A one off, unique.
Oh my, I retired on the coming 24th, yes, a bit ahead of myself, proud to have been a fisherman,,excellent clip withe the incomparable Luke,many thanks.
Amazing singer. His musicianship is as great as his voice.
Great song, well sung. RIP Luke brother 👍
The Voice of an Angel the great Luke Kelly his brilliance gives me bumps was/is there anyone better but NEVER forget Ronnie, Drew, Kieran Bourke , Barney McKenna and Jim Sheehan THE DUBLINERS
Real heroes never dies, Luke was such a brillant Singer, now, 34 years after his dead his songs are still heard all over the world. That makes him immortual and one of the greatest singers of the history. Although I cannot understand all of it, I listen to his songs every day and makes me melancholy
Thanks for Lettin’ me know that i dó luckly knew/Knów the Dubliners since about 1981/2! Because a therapist of those days made me aware of that Greát Irish Folk. Later on i got to know of Many Musicians more!! Among them Silly Wizard_Andy M_Stewart & the ether guys of that Band. Also i deed encounter? Planxty. There’s so much more Great Folk!!
It’s as clear as a bell to me,and I’m from the wee Black North.
@@kieransavage3835 to me too and I am from and in the Netherlands
Earned the gear(clothes) that I was wearing….
I LOVE TO LISTEN TO THE GOD OF SINGERS -- THE MIGHTY LUKE !!! RIP
Simply sensational. My late father loved the Dubliners and I remember vividly sitting with him listening to his favourite music. RIP jimmy your sadly missed ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Our dearest Luke Kelly always!!! His birthday is November 17th!!!!
Oh nice, to see Your name again here. This Irish music still stays really relaxing. Many greetings from Arnhem, oftewel Vriendelijke groet van voormalige Flakkeënaer, nu alweer zo’n 28 jaar ‘n Arnhemmer. Zit ‘t goed in m’n geheugen dat u een schoonzus van Barney bent?!
Beste groete uit Arnhem
Luke looked God in the eyes,
Thánks for Your words!!
Luke's voice is so good, listening to him when I was a lad I did not realise just what a treasure I was listening to. I sing this song whenever the "clans" get together but could never even begin to compare to Luke's vocals.
Luke magical.My favourite version and there are a lot to choose from, Some beauties but this has Luke.!!!
There is no better version than this!
Now that's how it's done
Played this since I was about 10, now nearing 60. One of my dads favourites, just beautiful
My dad was a massive Clancy brothers fan and i was too but Luke was the best singer of them all
bloody marvelouse!
lukes beautiful voice transports you to wherever he is singing about. magical
so sweet .what a voice.
what a beautiful version of this song,it always reminds me of me Da and the times we went fishing in Howth ,God Be Good to ye Lukey,
Brilliant
I am going to learn this song and sing it with passion never as great as Luke though
Thats our lukie
Was für eine Stimme 👏👏👏
Damm you Luke for setting the bar to high for us mere mortals
Cracking voice.
Over and over again I've listened. So beautiful words can not describe.
what a beautiful video to accompany this beautiful song. thanks for sharing!!!
That voice.
I was only familiar with the Clancy brothers version, but Luke is unbelievable. Kudos to the Clancy for popularizing Irish music, but Luke Kelly is another dimension!
A lovely English folk song.
Greatly enhanced by an Irish singer.. I'm English btw.
Mighty!
Beyond brilliant 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️🍀🍀💜❤️😊🍀🍀
A truly amazing performance from a legend brings back all the memories
There's only one word for this track FANTASTIC
chills. ...everytime
Many thanks for a remarkable rendition....as an old skipper.....grand portrayal. Bless you.
Superb video to support this great song and singer...thank you poster
Man... that footage makes me just want to jump on a boat and not look back. Maybe make port on the Irish coast for essentials, than just take off again. Dang.
Luke sang songs like he lived them. Pure passion
Amazing voice range. Just listening to this on holiday in Great Yarmouth - very appropriate (or was!).
If there is a god of folk music and a holy song, this is Luke singing it. I perform this at gigs. Luke is by far the best person to record this song. Good old Ewan was probably the worst.
I cannot agree about Ewan
Must be a god. No mortal could hit those high notes like Luke did!
Great version by Luke! I my opinion the best version! but he wouldn't be able to sing it if it wasn't for Ewan
Great version, Stornoway harbour.
he could have sung a page out of the phone book and it would sound like something by Verdi
What a beautiful way of putting it! Good man, what a great post!
Simply the best, God rest your Soul Luke you had plenty
There’s ónly to agree with thís Opinion!!
@@heardashot thank you :-) love me some Dubs and LK was the man for sure - very best to you.
@@danmcbmusic Hè did ‘woken up’ a bíg Love for nearly all the Irish and partly Scottish Folk, f.i. Andy M. Steward of Silly Wizard, who is for a bit maybe (?,!) comparable with Luke!!
... pictures of Scotland, sung by an Irish man, written by an English man ... there is a clue in there somewhere
Written by an Englishman by birthplace, but Scottish by parenthood; so...
One of the best versions I have ever heard. What an amazingly emotive song. Tough life.
It's THE BEST version.
💕🎶🇮🇪🍀
His greatest ballad. IMHO. Just magical. Listening to this is like drinking a fine brandy.
What a voice my partners dad was their roadie
Written by Ewan Mcoll
My favorite part of icelandic lyrics to this song
Lagst var miðin á landið allt um kring:
undir Jökli, útaf Gerpi og Skaga.
Oft var dreginn þá afli býsna vænn á
kútter Sigurfara forðum daga.
Gegnum veðrafár, gegnum manndrápssjó
alltaf slapp hann, - það var segin saga.
Ekkert vissu menn annað eins happa skip og
kútter Sigurfara forðum daga.
Hvað heitir lagið í íslensku?
The land was targeted all around:
under Jökli, out of Gerpi and Skaga.
Often the force was pulled quite nicely
cutter Sigurfara of old days.
Through storms, through murderous seas
he always escaped, - that was the story.
People didn't know anything else like an unlucky ship
cutter Sigurfara of old days.
I've only heard the Clancy brothers sing this song before. Luke kelly's sings it very well too.
Nobody sings it as well as Luke!
With our nets and gear we're faring
On the wild and wasteful ocean
It's out there on the deep
We harvest and reap our bread
As we hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Oh, it was a fine and a pleasant day
Out of Yarmouth harbour I was faring
As a cabin boy, on a sailing lugger
We were following the shoals of herring
Now you're up on deck, you're a fisherman
You can swear and show a manly bearing
Take a turn on watch with the other fellers
As you're hunting for the shoals of herring
Now we fished the Sward and the Broken Bank
I was cook and I'd a quarter sharing
And I used to sleep standing on me feet
As we hunted for the shoals of herring
We left the home grounds in the month of June
And for canny Shields we soon were bearing
With a hundred cran of the silver darlings
That we'd taken from the shoals of herring
In the stormy seas and the living gales
Just to earn your daily bread you're faring
From the Dover Straits to the Faroe Islands
And you're hunting for the shoals of herring
Well, I earned me keep and I paid me way
And I earned the gear that I was wearing
Sailed a million miles, caught ten million fishes
We were hunting after shoals of herring
You're net-ropeman now, boy you're on the move
And you're learning all about sea-faring
That's your education, scraps of navigation
As you hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Night and day, the seas we're daring
Come wind or calm or winter gale
Sweating or cold, growing up, growing old
Or dying
As you hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Luke Kelly's soul is so strong that shines over us. My catalan translation of his song, with love.
Els Bells Bancs d'Arengades.
Amb xarxes i aparells érem
en l’esquerp i feréstec oceà,
és allà, ben endins on trobem i collim el pa,
tot pescant les belles arengades.
Era un formós jorn i també plaent
Yarmouth enllà jo anava fent,
grumet n’era en un veler de pesca.
Seguíem els bells bancs d’arengades.
A coberta ja ets un pescador:
pots jurar i has d’aguantar ferm.
Pren torn per l’aguait junt amb els companys
tot encalçant els bancs d’arengades.
Ara fèiem Swarth i el Broken Bank;
feia de cuiner i em tocava un quart
i era ben sovint que dormia dret
mentre atrapàvem bancs d’arengades.
Vam deixar la llar en el mes de Juny
i a Canny Shields ara ja ens trobàvem,
amb cent coves plens de peixos d’argent
que havíem fet aplegant arengades.
Amb forts temporals i mars abrivats,
per a guanyar el pa és que ara lluitem,
des de Dover Straits a les illes Faroe;
anem empaitant les arengades.
Em vaig guanyar el plat i també el camí
i l’equip de feina que vestia;
milles navegant i mil.lions de peixos;
tot seguint els bancs d’arengades.
Mosso de corda ets, sempre en moviment,
aprens un munt sobre navegació;
són serrells d’ofici en tasques a mar,
tot caçant bells bancs d’arengades.
Dia i nit el mar és repte.
Amb calma, vent o forts vents d’hivern;
fred o suor, creixent, envellint, morint…
tot caçant bells bancs d’arengades.
Bella traducción, María.
Gracies
Magnificent!
Such a powerful and beautiful voice we can never hear agin but can be thankful to have had the opportunity to have heard once
Something else never another luke 😢❤
genius
Well if he wasent the greatest of all the folk singer ,Who was 👏👏
Luke was in a league of his own. No other singer, in ANY genre, comes close. He was a genius.
he's a Fukn genius,he could sing a song about a cat getting killed on a road and make it essential listening
I laughed at that, good man, wicked sense of humor.
@@heardashot that guy...... mc inerney should be writting the news headlines,,,, lolllllllllllllll

WOW!
Oh my Ian Russel...
saw the great man and the dubliners a few times in brum in the 70's
to think irish music produced this great talent and then came bono and it all went downhill lol
Totally agree
Not a bono fan by any means but the Joshua tree is a sublime album imo.
Should have filmed this at Great Yarmouth!
After you hear Luke Kelly sing a song, everybody else's version sounds inferior.
Hello!! a question, what is the name of the island? and what is the port called?
