[@WillVafuth]

Dig deeper lads. Gráinne Mhaol (Grace O'Malley) was added later. The original version called 'Ó ro! 'sé do bheatha a bhaile" is from around the time of the Jacobite Rebellions in Scotland and it was about Bonnie Prince Charlie (Séarlas Óg "Young Charles" in the original). The song was changed shortly after the Easter Uprising of 1916 adding Grace O'Malley as a recognizable Irish figure to give the the song a rallying tone for those opposed to the English. It's basically an Irish song supporting Bonnie Charlie's claim to the throne.. Here's the original lyrics: Chorus Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile, Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile, Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A Shéarlais Óig, a mhic Rí Shéamais ‘Sé mo mhór-chreach do thriall as Éirinn Gan tuinnte bróig’ ort, stoca nó leinidh Ach do chascairt leis na Gallaibh. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chorus ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ‘Sé mo léan géar nach bhfeicim Mur mbéinn beo ‘na dhiaidh ach seachtain Séarlas Óg is míle gaiscidheach Ag fógairt fáin ar Ghallaibh. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chorus ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tá Séarlas Óg ag triall thar sáile Béidh siad leisean, Franncaigh is Spáinnigh Óglaigh armtha leis mar gharda ‘S bainfidh siad rinnce as éiricigh!

[@haokanmike1962]

Didn’t Padraig Pearse change lyrics before the rebellion as it was sung during it and he was murdered right away after?

[@timotheboulder]

This version is better, because it's Pearse's version, a song about the Irish kicking the colonizers out

[@HunHare]

There are dozens of examples of traditional or older folksongs being conscripted for other purposes and having their lyrics changed. That's the beauty of folk music. It's for the people and it can evolve to send a new message as the times change, no copyright or royalties required.

[@coreym6791]

Oh my god! THIS is what I've wanted for so long. I've always wanted to see language lessons presented with music and history! Thank you for this! I will be looking for more! I've studied Russian, German, and French in college, but no one ever thought to incorporate music into their classes. It never made sense to me. Folk songs, especially, make a wonderful bridge between language and culture and history. Brilliant!

[@gazzthebossproductions8286]

I’m currently learning Irish, beautiful language, similar to Scottish Gaelic (“Anois” for Irish, “A-nis” for Scottish Gaelic). This is probably my favourite song sung in Irish. Great work guys 👍

[@IrishInstituteMusicSong]

Ahh super to hear Gazz! We love Óró as well, a classic.

[@roshefort]

Здравствуй, наконец ты дома! Здравствуй, наконец ты дома! Здравствуй, наконец ты дома И вот настало лето! Дома ты, свободна снова, Но пока в плену была ты, Эрин заняли злодеи И чужакам продали. Здравствуй, наконец ты дома! Здравствуй, наконец ты дома! Здравствуй, наконец ты дома И вот настало лето! Гранья Вэл идёт по морю, Не французы, не испанцы, С ней ирландцы при оружьи - Порвут врагов на части. Здравствуй, наконец ты дома! Здравствуй, наконец ты дома! Здравствуй, наконец ты дома И вот настало лето! Даже если смерть настигнет, Боже, покажи мне чудо: Гранья Вэл и войско наше Захватчиков изгонят.

Love this song. I'm a Greek born in Australia and now with the birth of my grandson I am also part Irish.

[@70r4]

When I fist time came to that song, I was absolutely in love with it. Before watching your video I mastered the chorus myself. And now, thanks to you, I know 3 more lines from that masterpiece! ❤ I will not stop until I can sing the full piece in Irish. Thanks Gods I started to learn Irish, so much beautiful song there!😊

[@VDallion]

It's so cool how you encourage learning about Irish language and culture. Thank you for this video. :)

I teach English and my kids would love this video! However, could you do an all Gaelic version for my nerds and me? X

[@IrishInstituteMusicSong]

We have some all Gaelic content coming in the near future!

[@adventureswithaurora]

I was thinking of the same thing! I really want the all-Irish version!!!

[@jwmulligan1]

See Bitesize Irish for complete Irish version + phonetic transcription and English translation. For the melody just insert the title of the song, there are several examples. I like Sinead O'Connor.

[@anagray]

I am learning this song at school and in full Irish

[@runningweasel86]

Would love to see this written out phonetically.

[@stephenmcnally8583]

Lads please start a channel fot adults where we can learn but have a drink etc. I'm thinking party games that encorage irish learning.

[@sterlingwilkes3240]

Ive always loved the way irish always sounds like youre singing when you speak, but god help me, i can never figure out your spelling system.

[@Finarphin]

This is helpful. How about another one with just the Irish lyrics?

[@robertwhelan9132]

Sláinte!

[@mirkwoodphotography2089]

Could you guys post the piano intro as a whole song? It’s so beautiful

[@caoimhin7122]

Fantastic! Now do the full Irish version, no English. Please!

[@kesslerwatson4085]

What's up with the english lyrics? I hope I never hear anybody sing this song in English again

why do you change to engklish in line 2 of the verses? i want learn to sing gaelic lyric. crazy hmmm

Interesting! Michael looks like he could be Rory McIlroy’s brother.

[@kevinsheehy891]

Don't know how long ago this was posted. Don't know if you guys check old videos comments but why did you not do the whole song in Gaelic? You're not supposed to mix languages or at least it's what I was told

[@florenceobrien2822]

Brilliant

[@scottmeehan2422]

You should do one on the civil war version of this song.

[@Stefanyylivieri]

very good! so funny

Great vid guys. I was hoping for no English though. Like the Clancy Brothers version at Carnegie Hall.

[@redtailedhawkdude]

I feel like if I try to pronounce this my tongue will fall off haha

[@fieldagentryan]

The british propsganda service hss sunk to this ..

[@darecare15]

Now that is some weird language, especially as many letters kinda dissapear during pronunciation as in french:) I heard this song performed by Screaming Orphans and it is great song, but I think their version is only in Gaelic..Maybe one day I will pull of this one:)

[@foxross]

It is more urgent that I learn better Swedish (recently moved) but I have wanted to learn Irish Gaelic for a long while.

will you do a totally gaelic version

Can you do the Irish anthem pls??

this is wonderful

Why is there English in it aswell and u got the verus mixed up

Hey guys, what does 'Gallaibh' mean? How come that didn't get translated? He he he, just kidding guys, I totally get it. Good move.

[@IrishInstituteMusicSong]

Absolutely - let's keep that a secret! A word for a more ancient Ireland!

[@-jank-willson]

@@IrishInstituteMusicSong is it a curse word?

[@malachai1381]

@@-jank-willson It means, roughly, Foreigners/Invaders, iirc

[@-jank-willson]

@@malachai1381 one that's hard to translate?

[@QuinnZip]

@@-jank-willson it’s more that there is no english word that doesn’t have xenophobic baggage attached to it - while in the context of the song they are referring to a foreign empire taking over Ireland, the term “foreigner” nowadays is used derogatorily to describe immigrants into a country.

[@janetclaireSays]

Why did you switch to English?

[@caoimhin7122]

I think there were multiple versions, even in English.

[@Mydog551]

My iPad is not the best whit cargi 1:48

[@xbackwards8776]

by the way your translation of the chorus is sadly incorrect. ORO mean "hey wake up;" It is an alarm. The other chorus lines are a call to return home to defend the homeland. The "welcome" crap is a pop version nicety. This song is a call to war and invokes Grace OMalle, the pirate heroine of Irish might. By the Grace lived during Quean Elizabeth's time, went to London and would not bow to HRH. This song is like Paul Revere sounding the alarm, "The British are coming." Oh Gosh Please do an all Gaelic version and don't mock our history.

Ní fíor sin ar chor ar bith! Is dócha gur fáilte abhaile do bhrídeach nua-phósta a bhí san amhrán i dtosach agus amhrán Seacaibíteach ina dhiaidh sin. B’é Pádraig Pearse a chuir Gráinne isteach ag tús an fichiú céad. That’s completely untrue. The song likely started out as a welcome home to a new bride and it was a Jacobite song after that. It was Pádraig Pearse who stuck Gráinne in at the beginning of the twentieth century.

[@danielofinan5071]

Wait a minute. Those aren't the right lyrics.

[@SW-ok8qr]

It went really well until you starting singing it in English.. I don't understand the point!!
