"Is fuaim gach caise ag sníomh go h-éasca"

And the sound of cheeses spinning easily?

I'm afraid I don't understand this line.

[YMarchogGwachul]

@dissonantsonorant Hehe, that line made me think too, though ‘cáis’/'cáiseanna' was what you were thinking of. ‘Caise’ apparently refers to a stream or current, which would give us something like ‘…and the sound of every stream winding easily/gently’. :)

Someone give this lass a record deal & quick - I've been walking aroundfor days with her songs in my head! :-)

[AnLoingseach]

Rann a hAon;

Tréimhse a chaitheas seal go h-aerach

I measc mo ghaolta go soilbhir sóil

Gan suim i gcleasaibh ná i gcúrsaí an tsaoil seo

Do chuirfeadh mintinn ar seachrán

Thugas gean is urraim dom bhaile dhúchais

Fuair cion is clú ar fud Inse Fáil

Is ní thréigfead feasta don grá ró-dhlúth san

Do Bhaile Bhúirne go bhfaighidh mé bás.

[AnLoingseach]

Rann a Dó;

Is breá í amharc a cnoic is a sléibhte

Is a gleannta féarmhar gach maidin cheoidh

Is fuaim gach caise ag sníomh go h-éasca

Go sroisfeadh béal na mara móir

Is breá iad coillte na gcrannaibh ndíreach

Ag fás go líonmhar i measc gach gleann

Go bhfaigheann an sionnach scáth is díon ann

An druid chiardhubh an broc is an creabhar

[AnLoingseach]

Rann a Trí; (Níor chan sí an rann so)

Is ann a gheofá an ainnir mhánla

Gur bhfonn le sárfhear suí seal ina treo

Go bhfuil a malaí ar dhath na háirne

Is a leacan álainn ar scáil na rós

Gur binne fuaim ná teangan Gaoluinne

Nár airís ariamh ar ghléasaibh ceoil

Ná Dáire Duanach do chuireadh suain ort

Bhí ag Fionn Mac Cumhaill i dTeamhair fadó

[AnLoingseach]

Rann a Ceathuir;

Tá Baile Bhúirne go fairsing fáilteach

Ag riar ar tháintibh a ghabhann an treo

Go bhfuil grá is lasair i gcroí gach éinne

Rug barr ar aon ní dá bhfacaís fós

Bíonn trial na sluaite ar an dTiobraid Naofa

Tá le cian faoi chliú is faoi ghradam mhóir

Ach impím feasta ar Ghobnait Naofa

Bheith mar dhíon is scáth againn pé áit go ngeobham

[baawuffwuff]

Nell I love your voice. I regularly listen to you singing "Lacha Bachach" on youtube as well.

You are like a shining jewel.

[ovane1]

[mimidreamie]

This girl is an unbelievable singer. Possibly the best I have ever heard. Does anyone know where she is from exactly? Does she perform regularly? I'm in Canada and don't know anything about her.

Thanks!

[YMarchogGwachul]

It's hard to find out much about Nell if you're not in Ireland, and not in on the sean-nós scene - but I found a brief bio of her as Gaeilge. Nell was born and raised in Beal Atha an Ghaorthaidh (Ballingeary) in County Cork, has been singing since she was ten, and is studying in Limerick to be a primary school teacher. Not sure if she performs regularly as such, but she seems to have competed in the Fleadhanna Cheoil for the past few years or so.

[twomeyangel]
