The Lass of Aughrim

[Angiolo666]

I read this lyrics when I read "The Dead". An amazing book and a amazing song. I like it.

Plaintive and emotive-was it G.K. Chesterton who said re; The Irish, that "All their wars were merry, and all their songs were sad "?

[malvadomonodelarmari]

Nice voice... Delicious...

[sebreathnach]

Togha chailin, ceann des na h-amhrain is milis o dhuchas na Gaillimhe agus canta to gasta! Beir Breathnacht!

[whatsername707]

WOW! I love this song...

[penndraegon]

This brought tears to my eyes. I am only Irish by blood and do not claim to know their kind, but I just read "The Dead" and afterward found your song and for the first time I think I understand just a little of the deep melancholy sensibility of that strange northern race. I confess that having siphoned down 3 Anchor Porters in the last hour might have aided some what in this epiphany.

[shalyma]

thank you very much! I've been looking for this song for months.I'm an italian joycean.

[kumamotop]

And then, as the singing started, the bar talk quieted and even the barman drew the pints with care so as not to disturb the song.

[karoro1128]

[jhpeeple]

[kalliahohoho]

[mistercolintorre]

this is the song greta conroy remembers her lover, michael fury, singing in joyce's story, "The Dead".

[Dangerbird1982]

[ePhilosopher]
