Cape Breton Lullaby

[@charlesbosselman6660]

One of the most beautiful place on Earth. My lovely Cape Breton Nova Scotia Canada. I spent many happy summer days at my grandparents house in South West Margaree.

I’ve never fell in love more than a place called Cape Breton Island ♥️🇨🇦🌏

I can't believe this is a children's choir, they sound so mature! Beautiful voices.

Love this, see why my Scottish ancestors went there !

I sang this at All State Chorus back in 1995. Now I sing my daughter to sleep with it.

I sang this in choir when I was a senior in high school and the final product sounded almost exactly like this, just with male voice mixed in lol. Such a beautiful and fun song to sing.

Driftwood is burning blue, wild walk the wall shadows. Night winds go riding by, riding by the lochie meadows. On to the ring of day flows Mira's stream, singing: Cai-dil gu la laddie, la laddie, sleep the stars away. Far on Beinn Bhreagh's side wander the lost lammies. Here, there, and everywhere, everywhere their troubled mammies find them and fold them deep, fold them to sleep, singing: Cai-dil gu la laddie, la laddie, sleep the moon away. Daddy is on the bay. He'll keep the pot brewing. Keep all from tumbling down, tumbling down to rack and ruin. Pray, Mary, send him home safe from the foam, singing: Cai-dil gu la laddie, la laddie, sleep the dark away. 🎼🎵🎶

got teary eyed reading this, ..is it a poem(?). I googled this song and it originated from Canada in which this song is meant for. It is for the fishermen who went to sea mostly in treacherous weather, and this song is praying for their safe return. Beautiful, haunting, hopeful, mesmerizing melodies.

@@josephinevrbik2182 The lyrics are by theologian, poet and political agitator Kenneth Leslie. The melody is traditional.
