I am from Czech republic, and I like that she supported Palestinians, gay people, victims of abusive behaviour, black people... literally everyone in this world who was treated badly. My impression is, that she never lied about important things, she was unable to lie. And I also like, that she kept looking and searching for the spiritual way and that she spoke with normal people all the time, in good times, when she helped them and in bad times too. Crystal clear soul. The biggest tribute, that you Irish could do, is to unite once again and forever. I never saw her singing, but I am happy, I could walk the same roads as she did, when I lived in Dublin.

Love Sinead - I'm an Englishman that at the age's of 18 and 19 spent 2 six month tours of N. Ireland as a British soldier. Did I have a clue why I was there - not a fucking clue! And the shit the poor people of N. Ireland had to put up with us squaddies stomping around the place was no doubt disgusting to them. Now I am 60+ I still have terrible memories of those days, I lost friends - you lost friends and family. I am so sorry for any pain I may have caused, but trust me, god is repaying it now. I'm a washed out alcoholic having done too much Charlie to try and forget those times (don't even put the Falklands or Bosnia into the equation). I hope one day we can all accept each other.

Be kind to yourself. I wish you peace

David, you might find value in what is written about suffering ... "if suffering is not inherently good, it can produce good if we endure it, allow it to purify us, and make it into a sacrifice." More in an article titled "How to offer up your suffering like St John Vianney" which is easily found.

In 1915. the X Irish Division saved Serbs from extinction. They fought under the "Union Jack" but they didn't fight for it. They fought to give Serbs time to pull out and evade certain annihilation. The V Dublin battalion got decimated, but they stood fast. Thanks to them, Serbs were able to pull out and live to fight another day. For that reasons, Serbs feel the emotion of the songs like these, even if they can't get a single word from it. Our great grand fathers broke bread on Macedonian front with guys from Sligo, Cork, Galway and so on. You can play a song like this in any "kafana" (Serbian version of a pub) and people will like it.

You don't have to understand Gaeilge to understand this song. I am learning Gaeilge right now and while I understand some of the words, the emotion in the lyrics, the vocal and instruments is enough.

[@bveracka]

@@dsddala467 It is _enough,_ certainly. The arrangement is very good, and-at least on paper-making an Irish folk tune into a reggae song sounds like a bad idea, but it totally worked. With that said, knowing the history of the song and how it was turned into a rallying battlecry for the IRA makes it even cooler. Patrick Pearse transformed it from a jovial reprise into a call to arms, turning "…sé do bheatha 'bhaile" to imply being proud of the Irish homeland, not just being welcomed back. It begins somewhere in the 1600's, becomes a tune for the Jacobites in the late 17th and early 18th centuries; as a wedding song and homecoming chant in the 1800's,; yet again is changed and used for rallying and marching during the Easter Rising of 1916; then it becomes part of the folk revival in the mid-20th century … _then_ Sinéad decides to do her own version of it in the 1990's! 300 years, countless versions, and it's still awesome.

[@DavidMarshall-scrybler]

I just want to correct this daft notion that the chorus means "Oro you're welcome home." It means nothing of the sort. In spite of what Google translate may tell youThis version of the song is a call to action. A call to arms, to insurrection and to take back the land stolen by foreigners. Let me explain why. The full line of the chorus is: Óró. Is sé do bheatha abhaile (If you are speaking English you could say it as: "o ro iss shay do va-ha awal-ya" but a little bit quickly. Irish is a very contextual language. It depends what you say and when you say it. If you read "aimsire lahreach" in a grammar book, it's probably saying "present tense". If you see exactly the same thing on TV is probably means "weather report". See how different they are. It's the same with this song. "Óró" is grabbing your attention. My granny would often call "Oro a Dáithí". It means everything from "come here" "pay attention" "heads-up" "mind what you are doing" "look here" and so on. So she was saying: "Pay attention David".... So pay attention you... or just "heads-up"... Óró a thú ... The next word in the written version is the verb/copula: "Is" and it's missing from the song. That's common enough in Irish, because "everyone" knows it should be there. So the phrase should be "Is sé do".... It is your... beatha, (do bheatha). There is no English word for this. The nearest would be "livelihood" or "sustenance", even "heritage" - and all of them together. In this case I think it's OK to say it means "birth right". Now: bhaile is really: abhaile... Meaning "back home".So the whole phrase gets pronounced: o ro iss shay do va-ha awal-ya. But it's too long to fit the metre of the song so we get.: o ro shay do va awal-ya. And all that is quite ok in Irish. SO THE LINE REALLY MEANS: Pay attention It's your birth-right back home. The last line of the chorus is especially important: To read it as "now that summer is coming" would be to misunderstand it. In agricultural Ireland, the summer is useless - unless you've already prepared "in the coming of the summer" in March and April. Which is exactly what the line says: Anois (now)... ar theacht (in the coming of)... an tsamhraidh (the summer). The song goes on to say something like "I was in a bar in some foreign lad when this woman began bemoaning me... Don't you know what's going on back home.... Your birth right is being stolen and sold to foreigners. Because although this is an old song, a little over 100years ago Patrick Pearse re-wrote it to support the planned rising (April 1916). There's nothing about "welcome home" in these lyrics (except for a bit about being more welcome than a hundred cows who were milking (and so especially valuable at a time when a man was considered rich if he had two cows). So to repeat myself, this version of the song is a call to action. A call to arms, insurrection and to take back the land stolen by foreigners. I know lots of versions of this song... and lots of people who still sing it (especially after last year). And although it's taken me a while to embrace this version, it's one of my favourites now. Great job Sinead.

Such a powerful song by an amazing singer, she struggled but endured ,may you have peace.

[@mikebain6886]

The only singer ive heard that can go from soft and delicate to full out intensity passion and anger in one breath . Unique

[@rembrandt1729]

sinead makes me shiver when i hear her sing in irish!

[@resourcedragon]

Ditto her renditions of "The Foggy Dew" and "He Moved through the Fair". Both are very lovely and very moving.

[@odonovan]

Still my favorite version of this song, ever. I heard an 80+ year old sean-nós singer do an a capella version that made my jaw drop open, but this is still my number one. For those who say Sinéad isn't "traditional," just watch the version of Foggy Dew she did with The Chieftains...the version with their comments about her. Gráinne Ní Mháille herself would be proud.

[@margmckay3257]

The Foggy Dew is amazing. I shiver when I hear her sing that song. So much feeling in it. God speed Sinead and May you be happy in Tir na Og💚🥳

[@clementinacarvalha7954]

RIP WARRIOR GODDESS ❤

[@toffeeghirl3062]

Goodnight. Sleep tight. My heart is shattered 💔

[@karenholmes51]

A warrior song! Thank you, Sinead.

[@seanpaulcurran]

A voice so remembered, a voice so original, a voice so true, a voice so dearly missed. GOD we miss you Sinead !

[@090nj2]

My primary school teacher kept on showing us this video Introducing me to sinead Her voice is easily recognisable She was amazing, pushing boundaries in music with her albums Making us proud R.I.P❤️🇮🇪🫶🏿

[@nunyabiznez6381]

Where I live it is illegal for teachers to play her music in schools. They can be fired and lose their teaching credentials.

[@WaraniWanua]

Rest in peace, dear Sinead, thank you for your beautiful spirit

[@Powers2487]

Such a bright talent and soul that we lost today.

[@RustyRelic66]

How the hell can someone not love this song and this performance? It's brilliant.

[@georgew.peterson2589]

I listen to this at least once a week.Sinead is absolutely amazing in this performance. I'm so sad she is gone.

[@Ansgar91]

She lives for this music and tradition. Greats from Germany.

[@river6634]

She converted to Islam. How's that for an IRISH nationalist XD

[@5tacky]

In light of all the amazing tributes to the late Sinead O'Connor, (Shuhada' Sadaqat) I can't help thinking how much more impactful they would have been had she still been alive and able to hear them. On that note, I'm going to make a more concious effort to tell people I love and appreciate them while they're still able to hear it. Rest In Power Sinead Saoirse don Phalaistín 🇵🇸🕯🇮🇪

[@petercosgrove3924]

My Dad born 1928 sang this song. His vocals were pretty good, no instrumentation until I heard this . Both inspiring.

[@Tarhunna]

She really, really hits it at: Gráinne Mhaol agus míle gaiscíoch, Ag fógairt fáin ar Ghallaibh. More than a lifetime of talent on just these two lines.

[@dsddala467]

Yep, you can see the passion, the angst, the raw emotions of the telling the foreigners to GTFO.

[@hildegardvonbingem]

All heart and soul this lady, what a voice

[@suecollins1991]

May your troubled soul finally be at peace.

[@orestes67]

YESSSS. Love this language. Give Ireland back their country. Love from the USA

[@elainemariamoreiraramosram7472]

Uma verdadeira irlandesa representava bem seu país. Está fazendo falta para nós Sinéad. Mas vai ficar na história suas lindas músicas. Vou te amar e ouvir você sempre. Adeus ícone .🕊🙏🎶

[@CaptainHarlock-kv4zt]

RIP Sinead.

[@HarujiSubayama]

I'm from America, have lived here all my life and never left the country, but I have buckets of Irish blood in me. Listening to these Gaelic songs and learning about Ireland's history makes me want to go there more and more with each passing day. But first I wanna learn Gaelic. XP

[@letseatyourbrains]

yea can learn Gaelic all ye like but first ya wanna learn irish . completely different dialects all over the place . even the English language in Ireland is not the same as the English language every were else

[@manaforcefield5376]

dude just go, its an amazing island nation.

[@ricka1633]

Irish is a difficult enough language to learn so I say leave it off as pronounciations, dialects and different versions of it vary from county to county.

[@terriecotham1567]

may you land and walk the lands of people with a rich and deep history one day

[@lutherhaynes8422]

I listened to this song a lot and it is a very good song. She has done very well for the song. I too have long roots from the family that ties to the Emerald Isle. It is a country that I will once visit. I too am a learner of the language because it is dying. I love the language because it is different and it was the Irish that came to the colonies to work the rail. It is our history that we must all embrace because it defines on where we have been and where we are going. Beannacht leat uile agus slán as nois.

[@SunLISunTube]

This beautiful Song is just not only for Ireland but inspire all hearts and souls around the world. Such a strong very powerful deep voice of Sinéad O'Connor !

[@oscarcocom6732]

Don’t know what the song is about but I’ll join in

[@fanhongzeng9272]

I will miss her RIP my favorite singer never forget her beautiful voice

[@macChelsea1984]

That's Sharon Shannon, from Co Clare, playing the button accordion. Her 1991 debut album, Sharon Shannon, was the best-selling album of traditional Irish music ever released in Ireland.

[@billmiller1868]

I truly loved her music and voice. Be Happy Now S. You made many Happy while you were Here🌹🕊🌹

[@fish1999onBass]

*Thousand thousand thank yous Sinèad for all. Goodbye my sweet friend of the world. Tusen tusen takk for alt Sinèad*

[@ahlimbashir6946]

She sang with so much of passion and power. Rest in Power Sinead

[@9UaYXxB]

Beautiful performance by all here. I always admired Sinead's 'take me as I am or leave me be and piss off' aura. Her self confidence is grounded in grit. I don't always like what she does or how she does it, but I like her for her character, she's more real than most.

[@mytyrel420]

Very well said, and I couldn't agree more. Sinead's complete sincerity is refreshing and incredibly endearing.

[@alaricmcguire1308]

i couldnt agree more

[@terriecotham1567]

when words come from the heart they come with honor

[@autumnicleaf]

She's still a rebel. She became a Muslim. A ball of fire. She had first cut her hair off, walking out of the studio, when the producer improperly kept touching her hair.

[@MrEpeeFencer]

She's a traitor.

[@CariadfromWales]

Rest in peace beautiful lady ❤❤❤

[@margaretmaher8146]

This is a marching song, and call to battle! It gets in the blood! Amazing performance!

[@billclisham8668]

May she find the peace in death that evaded her so in life. Rest well loved Woman, rest well.

[@eslir1749]

I love this song so much ... I live in Belgium, but love Irish Gaelic, went to Glencollumcille to follow just a one week course to get introduced into this language. So beautiful and mysterious, not easy to learn though, but I'm glad most irish people protected this language and they should keep doing so. On the side note: I hope Sinéad is doing well ...

[@michal-wilk]

sing it in heaven. Thank You

[@bartonseagrave9605]

Sinead is such a good singer and I not knowing a word of Gaelic was jumping for joy at the return of the Warrior Queen.

[@dickturpin9498]

Go hiontach! 🇮🇪

[@mysterylovescompany2657]

The way her performance melds pathos with defiant pride is giving me literal (& I do mean _literal_ literal) goosebumps on my legs. I wish so deeply that there was a Love button, that's like one step further than a Like.
