Very interesting that they use a mixture of Scottish Gaelic and Irish! It’s sung mostly in Scottish Gaelic but there are a few verses in Irish (the easiest way to tell the difference is the direction of the accents; if they’re leaning left like a ‘grave’ then it’s Scottish Gaelic, if they’re leaning right like an ‘acute accent’ then it’s Irish)

[@miroirs-jumeaux]

An there be accùte where wont be a gráve? (Who has the ken then as can tell the scotch from the irish?)

[@jennostrander9136]

Oh thank you I appreciate you pointing out that difference I have a bit of both so I was trying to figure it out myself!

[@0529mpb]

They are from the northern part of the Republic. So, a little of that Ulster Scot is creeping into the accent.

[@susannehunter4017]

​@@miroirs-jumeaux Faux pas!!!!! "Scotch" is WHISKY. PEOPLE are Scottish,or Scots!!!!

If ever there was a reason to learn the gaelic language then surely this is it. I could listen to linda's voice for hours. Totally Mesmerising. ❤

[@CelticSongs]

Couldn't agree more!

I have just started learning this year and its exciting listening to songs in Irish and recognizing a word or two!

For me , Niamh has way a better voice. She's the one you fall in love with. Ireland FTW seriously, what a gal - wonderfoul voice and astonishing presence. First of all very very talented vocalist.

[@alexeitighineanu8874]

There aren’t that many cultural emeralds like Gaelic languages, are there? Once one of the biggest folks across Europe, now - almost extinct, but survived Rome and Latin language. I am in awe of the Scottish, Welsh and Irish cultures.

[@rubencp93]

I'm not crying, you are! SHUT UP... This is beyond beautiful!!

[@JLCra87]

I love this, I'm American with Scotish and Irish roots. As most here I don't have much a connection with Ireland or Scotland. Gaelic is a beautiful language, and you all have beautiful voices! Great job!

[@Snarge22]

So much music out here in the USA is so very compromised, homogenized, commercialized, and whatever. There's some very deep roots set here with this music and while very old comes across to me as so refreshing. Thanks to everyone involved, my sincerest compliments to all of you.

[@CelticSongs]

Thanks for taking the time to share that insight and lovely compliment

[@CelticSongs]

Couldn’t agree more

[@SkunkApe407]

As an American born Norse-Gael, this type of music is almost as if my ancestors are speaking to me from across the oceans of time. I may not have been born in Éire, but she most definitely lives in my heart. Go raibh míle maith agat. Sláinte is táinte.

[@hughneek12]

You would still be very at home in Ireland. I am Irish born myself and and I am of Norse and Celtic blood like yourself and so many of the Irish race, the product of many Norse invasions and settlements over the centuries. For instance, the Cities of Dublin and Waterford were originally Viking towns and my surname O'Rourke was originally derived from the Royal Norse name hRothekr. My ancestors came to Ireland about 4,000 years ago from Skandenavia. So the Norse/Celtic link is very strongly historic.

[@SkunkApe407]

@@hughneek12 I'm a Cullen myself. Clan Cullinane originally came from a small village that was eventually annexed by Norse Dublin. Seems our forebears were neighbors.

[@hughneek12]

@@SkunkApe407 My Family shared half of the princedom of Breffni with the O'Reilly clan, in the west of Ireland, we had about 15 Kings of Ireland down through the centuries and we travelled about a bit for one reason or another, so members of both our clans surely met up, or indeed could have been long term neighbors down through time.

[@mikemac2824]

I too am a Canadian of Norse-Gaelic ancestry. I've done a DNA test which showed my Irish/Scottish with Scandanvian ancestry. I can only imagine my 16th or 17th or whichever great grandmother sitting around a fire in the 11th 12th or 13th century singing this song. Who was she? Did she know that some 700 -800 years later she would produce me? I wish I had a time machine to go back and observe her.

I have to have my monthly fix listening to this. Linda and the girls sing it so well. Love the way the first part of the song is sang over one chord then the effect when different chords are played behind the melody are entrancing. Wish I knew what tunings and chords the guitar is playing there, and what the harmony breakdown is. Just wonderful.
