I'm studing gaeilge by this song❤

[@joyb5525]

My mum would be 96 had she lived, but this was her favourite song. Her father Herbert Gregory Phibbs was a Collins man. Mums husband whose own dad was PJ was a first cousin to Dan Breen and also was involved with Collins. What a mess of a country we have now. Politicians who show nothing but contempt for ordinary people.

[@nunyabiznez6381]

My great grandfather fled Galway for Boston in 1902 after killing a British soldier who had kidnapped and raped his baby sister. she survived but my great grandfather left the monster's pieces in Galway, Clare and Tipperary. A few months later a 16 year old girl who lived a few doors down also fled Ireland lying about her age and the two married a few months later. My great grand aunt joined a convent near Boston in 1910 or thereabouts. My great grandfather taught me his native tongue from my first word until he died when I was not quite four years old but as there was no one else to speak it with I lost that language and no longer remember a word of it. My great grandfather would sing this song with a tear in his eye every single time anyone would mention my great grandmother in his presence. I do remember in the version he sang that it was all about my great grandmother extoling her many infinite virtues. I know it's a war song today but to him it was a love song. I completely forgot about this one memory I had until I just randomly found Davey Holden's videos and watched his short describing this and then I had flashbacks going back to my childhood 60 years ago and now I'm the one with a tear in my eye. We here in America have nothing left of what made us Irish save our DNA and our names and scant oral history of those our ancestors left behind to deal with the British.

I am obsessed by Irish History, especially the conflicts to attain Independence and the period of the Troubles. Thank you for giving me new information

[@AntonGully]

Aren't you frustrated that independence never happened? Also, by "conflicts to attain independence" do you mean all the maiming and mutilating of other Irish citizens? The IRA killed ten times as many people as the NI police. And we're still British. Fecking incompetents. I heard we might become Irish if we spit on a frog resting a shadow. Truly! Or, I mean about as likely as it happening. America fucked it up for Irish Independence. They don't want it, they'd rather have it as a political chip.

My great grandfather., who was born on the shore of a lake in 1880 in Galway and who came to America in 1902, used to sing this song every time anyone mentioned his late wife. my great grandmother who passed away before I was born. It must have been love because the version he sang would last for hours. I doubt he ever heard the later version of this song. To him it was a love song. But I did not know it's name until watching your videos. I only remembered the tune and that he sang it in Irish, the last in his family to speak the tongue. He taught me when I was a toddler but after he left us I lost the words having no one to share them with.

[@helenamcginty4920]

I learnt about Pádraig Pearse doing A level English Literature. W B Yeats poem Easter 1916 was instrumental in putting names to the fighters. Our teacher was an Irish nun so she fleshed out the story. My paternal grandfather was from Achill Island (Also connected with Grace O'Malley) and his wife told my mother of visits to the house by men from Ireland who had quiet conversations in Gaelic with grandad. These were never discussed. 😊 For all anyone knew they were discussing where jobs could be got.

[@eldruidacosmico]

Hello Davy! I just came across your channel, I'm a 42 y.o. man with a deep connection to Ireland (I was born and raised in Venezuela). You see, my mother's side is half irish and I was sent to boarding school there for a year. I visited most counties and a big chunk of my heart was lost in Co. Wicklow, never to be found again. I was catholic and then irreligious for almost 2 decades, then fell in love with eastern orthodoxy which brought me back to the irish saints like St. Kevin of Glendalough, St Brigid and many others. I now live in Costa Rica and long to set my foot on Ireland again one day. Thanks for your content! God Bless you!

Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge of Irish history. You've done a great job at communicating much information in a concise yet thorough way. As one of Scots-Irish ancestry, I would like to point out one detail. Prince Charles Edward Stuart was known as The Bonnie Prince, or "Bonnie Prince Charlie". "Bonnie" in this case just means "good", and shows the level of devotion that many Scots had for their Prince. Again, my thanks for a well done presentation. I enjoyed it very much!

I’ve interpreted the part where it says only the Gaels and not the French or Spanish as also a call to arms for the Irish diaspora too. That Grainne Mhaol is going to come home to Ireland with the exiles and that the Irish and only the Irish can liberate Ireland from the foreigners. He’s using the images of the wild geese by invoking a hero of Gaelic Ireland coming home with soldiers as a representative for us “exiles” coming to fight for Ireland

[@jimblount9691]

Well done Davey! Keep the stories coming. Every time I hear a new story it reminds me of the histories I was being taught at school in central Scotland in the early sixties. Later as an adult and after much reading and better understanding I realised that institutionally we were often misled! Inaccuracies would probably be being a bit polite. If only more accurate and honesty from the institutions that taught us, same schools for all children then perhaps there would be less division among working class people. Perhaps the establishments of my era in Scotland were very happy to keep us all devided. Education and truthful histories help us to properly understand our existence and also our future. ☘️

I love the history within Irish music. Actually, one of my ancestors created the second (I think) biggest brotherhood organisation: The Fenian Brotherhood. My ancestors was John O’Mahoney, who fought in the American Civil War as a Colonel in the 69th New York Infantry Regiment, which is still active today, he was in many Fenian Raids in Canada, and served in the [Young Irelander] Rebellion Of 1848, and he was a partner with James Stephens. He was born in 1815 in Kilbeheny, on the border between County Limerick and County Cork, Ireland, which is also where my clan originated in: O’Mahoney (Also known as: Mahany, Mahoney, etc)

One of the greatest Irish tunes

Thanks for these very interesting, concise and informative explanations ; that deserves at least one more subscription, a little help from a French supporter but I hope you won't mind! 😉

Great history lesson. Thank you!

Northern Protestant here: love your stuff, Davy. We're all Irishmen in the end. Sad to say, too many of my religious compatriots up here don't realize that England would drop us in a heartbeat if they could. Until Washington orders the next imperial war, of course....

interesting information about Ireland before and during the Irish Rebellion

I live in America. My Grandfather was from Ireland, a town called Clonbur. Listening to Davy's voice makes me think of him. I'm glad I came upon this channel.

First if all thank you! I love the song done in many different styles/ renditions. Secondly I love your outfit it’s retro cool.

[@rafangirl1]

I adore this song. Thank you for the insights!

[@joe56474]

My favorite Irish song!

[@stargoko7144]

Can you please make a vid when the Turks helped the Irish during the potato famine, not many people talk or know about it. Thank you, love your channel :)
