I find Ulster Gaelige very difficult to understand yet I can understand Scottish Gaellic better than the Ulster Gaelige (Irish) as some Scottish Gael is like Gaelige (they are derived from the same old Celtic language). I am from Cork but now live near the Waterford Gaeltacht (but still in Cork) which is Munster Gaelige.

I am just looking into my Irish heritage now, and this man's voice as he sings really inspires me to learn more. I want to learn our language. The Irish in my country were ashamed when they came here, so they renounced their culture and language and over the generations it has become lost. I grew up with no connection to it whatsoever. Thank god for us as Irish people all over the world still being able to still access records of where we are from, and see our culture, language, and country still in existence. Not everyone is so lucky. My friends and peers who are the descendants of African slaves would give anything to have a morcel of the information we have access to. Thank you for posting this, his voice is like a window into the souls of my ancestors long before they left Ireland. It's nothing like the modern adaptations from what I can tell with just listening. Research will tell me more. I'd like to know more about this man singing, his language, and this song. Thank you again, I feel so blessed to have come across this.

Exactly, I agree with Christoir246, you are much better informed than the average Mick. Fair play to you. You are our honorary Irishman ;)

Yes. Gráinne Mhaol is the pirate AKA, "The Sea Queen Of Connaught." This song refers to the Irish soldiers that were in Europe, and the hope that they would restore Ireland to her native people. This was the rallying call to the Irish in America(as well as Ireland) as Patrick Pearse led the 1916 easter sunday uprising against the British. Native Irish feel free to tell the tale, for I am only a fifth generation Irish descendant in America, and have no room to speak.

The reason I like this song so much is because it's wishful thinking put to lyrics. It's so sad and beautiful and happy all at the same time.

There's something about this song that incites the fires of liberation and rebellion in the celtic heart.

you can really hear the difference in how a native speaker and someone who learned the language sings this one...

As an american who has largely irish ancestry, keep your culture alive for as long as you possibly can. American culture or the lack thereof is a prime example of what happens when you don't.

I repeat - absolutely magnificent. Imagine sitting in this guy's house with an open fire and hearing his past and this song, with a wee hauf and just in the moment. Magnificent x

Great song, the tune was from an old Scottish Jacobite song with new lyrics from Padraig Pearse .

Soon no Irish person will be able to sing the songs like this because most of them have lost the Gaelic phonetics from their speech. Very anglicised country now overall. Even many of the Irish speakers borrow the English phonetic system instead of the native one

Listening to this on St Pat's 2016. Truly, this rendition is a drop of the pure.
