@seandherbert100 In poetry and lyrics, we often switch around the positions of words for the sake of meter, rhyme, etc. In this case, it means "we bring a gay garland," and the word gay just means festive, and has no connection to homosexuality :) .. got it from Answersdotcom
@ishvareya i knew it has nothing to do with homosexuality. just didnt know what she was talking about. but why a garland? i dont get it. but i know what the words mean separately. "we bring a garland gay" to what? to whom? to the forest? etc. what does "weve been rambling all the night" mean? I know what rambling means but what does it mean in this context? what does Loreena McKennitt mean to say?
@ishvareya•The newer artificial "pc" context of an erroneous suggestion such as homosexuality, will never take precedence over the true Divine attribute of gaiety, happiness, humourous, high spirited merriment in the harmonious sanctity of the proper definition... originally costumery before behavior(sixteenth and seventeenth centuries). The first derogatory connotation came about in the "gay 90's"(1890's), implying promiscuous behavior, as in sexual and deviant promiscuity, which led to . . .
i am from india and barely anyone listens to these types of songs..I really hope people realise that all those bollywood songs with half naked women cannot create the effect on anyone that these types of songs can...to your soul i mean..these songs are like food to our souls..reminds me of the himalayas and its magical whispers that linger in my mind
