I met mat malloy this summer & watched him play in his pub. inspiring song..i play it on violin!:]

[L2GB]

Genial, la bailaremos en mi boda. Gracias por la canción.

[Ulstermandd]

Nice! Shoulda had some pics of protestant churches and their politicians, we are here too and we are Irish as well! 

[mjw12345]

@Ulstermandd

DEREK BELL,I think from Belfast,was with the Chieftains until he died too young. He was not I think from the "nationalist" tradition. The music was what mattered for the much loved Derek and for the Chieftains as well. It was Ulster that rescued the music of O'Carolan that survives. BTW,the Chieftains performed at the concert to welcome Queen Liz to Ireland. So,there's no lack of appreciation for all the great traditions of Ireland by our best artists.

I"ve been a the crossroads of Muff & Burntfoot!! Brings back memories it does.....!!!

Erin Go Bragh!!!

[bheadh]

Ar feabhas! Go hiontach! Nior chuala me aon ceol chomh deas. Ba mhaith liom moran le ceol seo. Eireann go deo. Taim a ghra mo inis fail. Beannacht De na Eireannachai ar fud an domhain agus beannacht De le hanamacha na marbh.

Hello! I am looking for this song for some time, and I'm not familiar with the Irish language :( I know that translation is White, Orange and Green but I can't find adequate performance on YouTube that will show how beautiful this music is :((

greetings from Croatia :))

[khasab]

@13maja01 the translation of TABHAIR DOM DO LÁMH is 'give me your hand'.

[LeonardARobert]

Thanks for popping in a couple of shots of Limerick, much appreciated.

[dec8808]

@krsongs are you just posting that to get a reaction?

[krsongs]

@dec8808 Well I have never been to the UK. I have been to Central Europe... only once. Next time I'll hit the UK for sure. These are sure beautiful pictures.

[rph1981]

Wonderful slideshow. Thanks for posting a marvellous tune.

Love the Shrine of Knock

[Derwentcub]

@nissanalmera01 Same here - it's awesome, isn't it? So beautiful, with a true feeling of peace and serenity.

[skaworld509]

this should be our alternative national anthem - give me your hand

[Derwentcub]

@skaworld509 Yes, it's a hauntingly beautiful melody, isn't it?

[SophienaEireann]

música maravilhosa, e país muito lindo!

gostei

[Zealotuss]

awesome, love the chieftains

[TheWolvie450]

This is a nice version, but the definitive one belongs to Liam o' Flynn playing with Planxty. Check that one out if you like this tune.

[Derwentcub]

@TheWolvie450 I'll take a listen to that - thanks for the tip, my friend.

[TheBeeblebrox]

lovely! I think I have been to some places u've shown... Ireland is such a lovely place! I wish I could spend some more time thr :)

[seonidh]

I once went to a chieftains concert and Paddy Maloney said this song was written by the irish bard Rory Dall who was a bard to the scottish lord of the isles. Apparently he was taken by the beauty of a scottish chieftains daughter and composed this tune in the 16th century. Its called take my hand as he would have loved to dance with her.

[liamg353]

@seonidh It's actually "Give me your hand"

[MrHoopy1967]

Great video. I love living here even when it rains. Just sittin on my chair waiting for Spring to arrive and get out walking all over this grand island.

Happy St Patricks Day earth.

[IcyIce17]

Éirinn go brách!

God bless u Irish!!!

affectionate regards from Berlin/Germany!

[locomotive1804]

Yes, I've been there too. It was the country of my grandparents, a legacy that I could only appreciate by visiting the country. If Ireland was a girl, you'd spill it all out by telling her you love her

[Derwentcub]

@locomotive1804 What a sagacious comment.. Now I'm off down the rainy country lane to Mrs Murphy's pub... Ah bless Ireland!

[U2360T]

i LOVE Ireland

[Derwentcub]

@U2360T Thanks - it's impossible not to. Long live Ireland!

[MrBrendank]

it is great. im glad you found peace here

[Derwentcub]

@MrBrendank Thank you - it's one of the most wonderful places on earth.. Bless you x

[Derwentcub]

When the stresses and strains of the modern world get you down, Ireland is the place to visit. When I was diagnosed with cancer, three years ago, I found peace and love in this beautiful country. God bless you for looking after me. God bless the Emerald Isle - one of the most beautiful countries on earth. Absolutely wonderful people too.. Thanks a million!

[irishfella1987]

@Derwentcub Ná Bac é mo chara, tá fáilte romhat!!!

[Hakiblack]

I hope that your big C is being looked after on all fronts, ie, the medical, and the metaphysical. My father was diagnosed recently. my attitude was, go with the chemo. and then work on the diet and the Reiki, etc. All my best with the future. fight the bastard disease. were all behind you.

[Derwentcub]

Thank you so much Hakiblack - very much appreciated, and God bless your father..

[diarmaidruane1]

Loving the picture of dunnes stores...ya cant bate it!!!

[donotserorator]

Sorry Pro IRA songs do not seem Pc In this day and age ?????

[TheLenaBean]

The song translates as 'give me your hand', and is a popular slow air for both weddings and funerals, articulating great beauty and love, how is it possible that you have interpreted it as a pro IRA song?

[donotserorator]

It was an observation and as I live in a country that has freedom of speech even on a You Tube board I will use that right just as you have. Rightly or Wrongly.

[Dashlanders]

1:33 GLEN COLM CILLE!

I have that same foto!

Fantastic!

Oideas Gael?

[Onawawgirl]

My great great great grandfather emigrated to Canada from Donegal nearly 200 years ago . This video makes me want to visit my roots.

[Derwentcub]

You must visit your roots - Ireland is wonderful x God bless you..

Tony x

[Dashlanders]

Did I see silverstrand and killybegs at the begnning?

[Derwentcub]

Indeed..!

[woodkerne]

God bless Ireland

[mattheword80]
