Not "hundreds of thousands". A few thousand - and more on the Government side than the Jacobite one, since the Jacobites massacred almost all the defeated army at the Battle of Prestonpans while most of the Highlanders at Culloden escaped. (The Battle of Falkirk was the other major one, with lighter casualties, but again more on the Government side).
The Jacobites didn't want to put an end to religious persecution, they just wanted to do the persecuting themselves.
The political reality is that there are 3 choices: (1) Parliamentary Unionism with rule from Westminster (the Whig-Tory-Labour solution) (2) Self-government under the Crown (the Jacobite solution), or (3) Racist-nationalist separatism - promoted in Ulster by murder - which will simply result in rule from Brussels by unelected bureaucrats far worse than Westminster (the dumb ass racist solution).
The Jacobite rising was about the constitutional restoration of the legitimate government and the restoration of self-government under the Crown against a parcel of corrupt exploiters who had seized power illegally and were oppressing the people, in England as much as Scotland and Ireland. Constitutional self-government is now back on the menu. Don't spoil it with the poison of racism!
This song is beautiful and deeply sad. I shed a tear when i hear it sang well. Makes me proud to be from Charleville and Ireland. The poetry of Sean Clarach Mac :Domhnal is beautiful. Is e an fhile go huinteach a chairde. Apologies for the spelling in Irish but i was never good at written Irish.
"All it takes is 4 true scots and a set of bagpipes to start a revoloution" - An old scots proverb that has proved itself time after time, sadly for the past few centuries we have lived uner english rule no thanks to King James, whose to say that Bonnie Prince Charlie would have got us independance, but it prefer him over King Billy anyday (thats comeing from a protestant) Patriotism over Religion Any day, Alba Gu Brath
@mohawkmohican - "Patriotism over religion" is exactly what gave us the First World War and the slaughter of the trenches. Have you learned nothing, blockhead? Bonnie Prince Charlie was about restoring constitutional rights and self-government for the 3 Kingdoms, not some fatheaded racist-nationalist idiocy. No true Scot wants another bloody revolution!
STOP arguing about who invaded who! Things happened and they were tragic. But that was in the long past. Carrying the hatred does not undo the past. Just enjoy the song and the beauty of the Gaelic language - keep up the squabbling and the language could disappear as it almost already did!
FFS! why is it everytime there is a bagpipe song , gealic song or whatever song theres always some f***** Twat / twats that have to bring in the rule or the country and bring the past / history of britain into it.
BOTTOM LINE IS WE ARE ALL ON THIS ISLAND, SCOTTISH WELSH & ENGLISH GET OVER YOURSELVES AND LIVE TOGEATHER ffs,
IM BIGGINNING TO THINK YOUTUBE IS FULL OF UN EDUCATED FOLK!
I'm spanish, from Galicia, and when i was in scotland a month ago i heard about the story of the Bonnie Prince Charlie and the jacobites, a sad story...
The French chose to leave Morocco when the french colony tanked under the indigenous population rebellion. The Brits should do the same in Ireland. Give the last six counties back to the Irish........
@bweber2k - Weber and the ill-informed geek are simply racists. There is no place for racism in any sane politics. You are also ignorant of what this song is about. It is not about Irish or Scots nationalism both of which are racist abominations. It is about the attempt to retain the ancient constitutional rights in these islands at a time when they were being trampled upon by a corrupt government. The Bonnie Prince was King of all 3 kingdoms - including England - not just one!
did this song for my leaving cert in 2008, never minded it much. But now i am studying Gaeilge in college and listening to MAry singing this song brings bród and áthas orm, her voice is amazing..from now I am buying Irish music! I had never realised how beautiful our heritage is!!! an mhaith ar fad! ní neart go cur le chéile!!!!!
@Wrz2e the song was dedicated to the scottish prince Bonny Prince Charlie with the last Scottish rebelion of 1745 he was called the dashing darling by the irish gaels mo Gile Mear. Its a lament to what the gael of scotland and ireland lost in the rebelion and that he may return. He never could.
For, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.
Irish nationalist republican rebel = stupid racist fathead ignorant of his own history who forgets that Cromwell was a republican and O'Connell a life-long monarchist, the Dubliners booed the rebels of 1916, that Dev connived at the murder of Collins and that the whole republican experiment has ended with the likes of Bertie Ahern, Brian Cowan and a debt of 46 m Euros. This song is about Jacobite Ireland - not nationalist republican rebel Ireland. Wake up and smell the Guinness!
There seems to be something inherently musical about the Gaelic language ... wonderful. Anyone agreeing, I recommend listening to Clannad and, for Scottish Gaelic, to Capercaille.

Must admit I tend towards Dublina's side. It is worth noting that the Gaels in A' Ghàidhealtachd had little trouble with their eyesight until the filthy "english" occupier started to take its pornography North of the Highland line.
This is the Gaelic song used in the casually racist 'specsavers advert' when a shepherd in the Gaeltacht shaves a dog instead of a sheep that is shown on british T.V.
The story behind the song is fascinating, it was written in Ireland and is in praise of Charles Edward Stuart who was then in exile. The tune became anglicised to the more familiar 'Will Ye no come back again ?'.
@DublinaThe ? in what way is the specsavers advert "casually racist"? i really cant see it !!! and you,ve no proof that they,re in the Gaeltacht(ireland or canada)i thought it the was scottish highlands(A' Ghàidhealtachd)
i think its far more likely that you have imagined this as a slight on the gaelic people by the "english" well im northern english of irish decent who loves visiting scotland(nice people) im proud of my gaelic heritage and one thing i hate is racism,get over yourself you idiot
Ahm just surprised that the "idiot" who shears a dug wizny portrayed wi red hair an a big red beard !
It would have been less racist if his croft wiz burning doon and his faimly were being turfed oot in the snaw by british soldiers. Ahm nae surprised that you like it in Scotland though, eh? you probably go to Argylle where there's no Scots left at aw or tae inglaness. Numpty.
p.s your bum's in a tinny pal. the queen of england has just been welcomed with open arms into the brave Irish republic today without so much as a boo to a goose while last week the people of Scotland (some of them Scottish) voted for SNP majority rule.
@DublinaThe i told my mate today about your comments,his reply was(and i quote)"what a diddie,tell him he's a chookter"and"theres no way that advert is racist"
(bums in a tinny,that made me laugh)

and the insult about my being english and having no respect shows you have an unecessary and ingrained hatred towards the english.and i did tell you my family is irish
this will also be my last reply and yeah yeah very clever,question my sexuality and wish me dead,how old are you ?
People are saying that pearseand connolly would ve turning in their graves for what has happened recently. Pearse and connolly and everyone else involved in the rising done nothing for this country but cause a mass of civilian death. They killed nearly 300 innocent civilians. Is that doing good for your country? The only reason why the rising (which was a failure) is seen as a success is due to the over-reaction of the brits. Before theyre over-reaction the people of dublin spat and jeered on t
@Legionairius807 im not disrespecting it. im just outlining the hatred that was felt for them in that present time. also there are many more people who done more for the country than they did and dont get enough respect that they deserve.
@Pictish76 Which studies are you refering to in such error? DNA has revealed the entirety of the British Isles to be "stubbornly Celtic". Germanics do not dominate there.
Tens of thousands of Irish and Scotsmen gave their lives to defend the right of the legitimate and native kings of GB against the strangers... the imposter of Holland and the cruel Hun of Germany. The British royal family are still German (the house of Saxe-Coburg-Goethe). The last legitimate 'British' king was James II. All since have been but Germanic degenerate inbred hun princelings.
it took us irish 700 years to win our freedom and we gave it away after 88 years! the government of ireland shud be shot for treason. pearse and connolly are turning in their graves!
Island of Britain = England + Scotland + Wales. United Kingdom = England + Scotland + Wales + Northern Ireland + Isle of Mann. Island of Ireland = Republic of Ireland + Northern Ireland. Long story short, England = Fat invading bastard who owns everything cept for Rep of Ireland who is now owned by the IMF. Gawd i luv our neck of the woods!
@Towerfallart5000 The Irish, Scots and Welsh are unfortunately blinded with their victim-stories of yesteryear. While you continue to promulgate your sad stories, our respective countries, which, let's be honest, share a very similar culture and DNA, are being invaded by the third world. Keep complaining about the English because we're going to die off, and so will the Irish. Wake up - your leaders are traitors.
@nvb2005 Not invasion, but ethnic migration of old. The celts used to be all over the British isles, along with the Scots in Scotland. When the Romans came, they were basically pushed from England into wales and Scotland. Then after the Romans came the Angols and Saxons, who kept control of England until 1066 and the Norman invasion.
@Towerfallart5000 The Isle of Man isn't in the UK. Apparently it's technically a crown dependancy, or something. A bit like the Channel Islands not being part of the UK. Just me being pedantic. I see your point, however.
Wales isn't a country its a principality. act of unon was the union of scotland and England. Ireland wasn't divided then and wasn't part of it. It is now part of United kingdom but not GB.
Great song - it's about what could have been, not as it was, We all know what Charles was, what went wrong and why. Does anybody think it would have been a good thing if he had won? We are Celts, where ever we roam, and that's where my heart is...

Regarding flanncada's comments. There were not more Irish fighting for Charles Edward Stuart than Scots and neither were there more Scots in Cumberland's army, than English. The latter perception is British propaganda. May I suggest you read Murray Pittock's, " Myth of the Jacobite Clans".Enligtenment awaits.
It's a song. A song about historical events that had resonance throughout the British and Irish isles. It's funny that it should make dewy-eyed monarchists out of those I would suspect to be republicans otherwise, but that's the power of song for you.
i dunno what ur all fighting about? aint that the point? to stop fighting? irish and scotts both have reason to hate and distrust the british yet to this day the IRA is all we hear about..and all most ppl know about history or relate it too is Braveheart..which in and of itself is a pretty accurate portrayal of british tyrany over the centuries. i being of both scottish and irish descent, hate the brits, sum say i have no right, but i would be in ireland or scotland now if not for the brits
@rhaevn67 You illustrate exactly what we are nitpicking about. History may be bunk but inaccurate history insults our ancestors (and maybe the intelligence of those to whom Braveheart is presented as history). There were more Irish fighting for Charles Edward than Scots and more Scots in Cumberlands army than English. To many Scots Bonny Charlie was too associated with Popery to be welcome. Incidentally William Wallace was betrayed to the English by Robert the Bruce
@rhaevn67 Great Britian is made up of Northern Irelend, Scotland, England and Wales. You are so ignorant! You hate the Brits? which ones? the Scots? The Welsh? The Northern Irish? The English? I'll bet you live in America right? (And before you ask, I am Scottish)
@mikeybhoy12345 Your Ignorance is staggering! You MUST be an American right? What about Wales? England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland. Never heard of Wales???
@SalesLeadSecrets Great Britain, or Greater Britain as it should be in real terms, is a geographical term which refers to the largest island in a group of islands off the north west coast of mainland Europe, which includes, Scotland, England, & Wales.... Collectively known as the British Isles, another geographical term, which includes Ireland & Great Britain, & all the lesser or smaller islands which surround it!
I'm currently re-reading the second book of Gabaldon's saga " Outlander" it's the one about the preparation of Jacobite's rebellion and all the events till Culloden. Seeing this video was just so fitting to visualise the story.
There's a tendency to explain the Stuart threat as a conflict between the Celtic and non-Celtic nations in the British Isles. Even as the last attempt by Scotland to achieve the status before 1707. Unfortunately,there's no such a thing. The Stuarts were supported by the Highland clans (not by "Scotland") mainly because he, like the rest of the royal line, were Catholic, which also accounts for the Irish support. BPC could never have reached as far as Derby only with 'Celtic' help.
@xLoLaTVx There are many different versions of this song, and different dialects of Irish use different spellings sometimes, so the versions you are finding may be corrects.
However, Irish is usually spelt very badly online for some reason. Cuireann séisteach orm!
Irish means" scottish pirate" our people are the same we speak slightly differant gaellic many songs sung by the irish are in fact scottish. The Irish have bravely defended their culture the scots have not! thus the origins of music( celtic that is ) is subscribed to the irish
@davidh9134 God man that is insulting! We are gaels together. We rise and fall together and this song above all others unites us. I am very disturbed by your comment. "the Scots have not" Shocking. Come where I live in Canada!
Typical English response, Icargill. Divide and conquer. Truth is, Irish and Scots always were the same people, through music, culture, and blood. It took the English pricks to divide us.
With reference to Prince Charles Edward Stuart, let us not forget that the '45 was a civil war not a nationalist war. There were southern Scottish clans who fought against the highland clans and there were English who longed for a Stuart victory. The Hanovarians were usurpers to the rightful line of the Stuarts. God bless the king over the water.
i love this song but i am having trouble finding the correct lyrics for this version, i found lots of lyrics but none match up, does anyone have the exact lyrics for this particular Mary Black version, thank you so much.
@corkyjnr verse 2&3 2. Ní haoibhinn cuach ba suairc ar neoin, Táid fíor-choin uaisle ar uathadh spóirt, Táid saoithe is suadha i mbuairt 's i mbrón, Ó scaoileadh uainn an buachaill beo. Cúrfá:- 'S mo laoch ... srl. 3. Níl séis go suairc ar chrua-chruit cheoil, Tá an éigse i ngruaim gan uaim 'na mbeol; Táid béithe buan ar buairt gach ló, Ó théarnaigh uainn an buachaill beo. Cúrfá:-
It's been a while since I last heared this song, but it came creeping back into my mind and got stuck.. Problem, I couldn't remember artist nor title,only Gaelic with a female voice.. I looked through all my records.. I was so desperate that I was about to look through every gaelic song on youtube, when I remembered Celtic Woman used bits of the song in one of theirs.. Well, that made searching a lot easier! I'm so glad I found it now, peace of mind once again and one Irish treasure richer. <3

@nacho1560 Its kinda sad to think that the people of England cared more about their leader following the same religion than of being of true english blood in those times
That's because there is no such thing as "true English blood". There is true British blood, that would be the Irish, Scots, Welsh, etc.. the "English" are in fact of German descent and have much in common with those cousins of theirs.
Inverkenny...thank you for the bit o history it was very interesting and brings some depth to these songs from so long ago. It must be unbelievably wonderful to live where history resides in its land, its seas and its people. From a girl in canada with the "thistle and shamrock variety of DNA".
Scots and Irish are both Gaelic. The language spoken by the Highlanders is pronounced, in English, Scots Gallic. The song is from Scotland because it is about the Young Pretender!
SlightlySusan, Being about the Young Pretender does not automatically make a song Scottish, and by every account (OTHER than yours) it is Irish. It is written in Irish Gaelic, which is, as much as this might go against your perception, different from Scots.
PS: The original version of Oro Se do Bheatha 'Bhaile, a VERY Irish song, was about Bonnie Prince Charlie as well. So stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
Actually, Susan, I think you will find the language is Irish Gaelic. Seán Mac Domhnaill was an Irish poet. But yes, the song is about Bonnie Prince Charlie, because the gaels in both Ireland and Scotland had common cause against the English at the time, and the Irish had hopes that a Scottish defeat of the English wolud 'free' them too. Hence their shared sorrow at Charles' defeat. So its an Irish song about a Scottish king.
Not "hundreds of thousands". A few thousand - and more on the Government side than the Jacobite one, since the Jacobites massacred almost all the defeated army at the Battle of Prestonpans while most of the Highlanders at Culloden escaped. (The Battle of Falkirk was the other major one, with lighter casualties, but again more on the Government side).

The obvious choice for any sane person is (2).

@DublinaThe ? in what way is the specsavers advert "casually racist"? i really cant see it !!! and you,ve no proof that they,re in the Gaeltacht(ireland or canada)i thought it the was scottish highlands(A' Ghàidhealtachd)

It would have been less racist if his croft wiz burning doon and his faimly were being turfed oot in the snaw by british soldiers. Ahm nae surprised that you like it in Scotland though, eh? you probably go to Argylle where there's no Scots left at aw or tae inglaness. Numpty.

@nvb2005 Not invasion, but ethnic migration of old. The celts used to be all over the British isles, along with the Scots in Scotland. When the Romans came, they were basically pushed from England into wales and Scotland. Then after the Romans came the Angols and Saxons, who kept control of England until 1066 and the Norman invasion.

Regarding flanncada's comments. There were not more Irish fighting for Charles Edward Stuart than Scots and neither were there more Scots in Cumberland's army, than English. The latter perception is British propaganda. May I suggest you read Murray Pittock's, " Myth of the Jacobite Clans".Enligtenment awaits.

@rhaevn67 You illustrate exactly what we are nitpicking about. History may be bunk but inaccurate history insults our ancestors (and maybe the intelligence of those to whom Braveheart is presented as history). There were more Irish fighting for Charles Edward than Scots and more Scots in Cumberlands army than English. To many Scots Bonny Charlie was too associated with Popery to be welcome. Incidentally William Wallace was betrayed to the English by Robert the Bruce

There's a tendency to explain the Stuart threat as a conflict between the Celtic and non-Celtic nations in the British Isles. Even as the last attempt by Scotland to achieve the status before 1707. Unfortunately,there's no such a thing. The Stuarts were supported by the Highland clans (not by "Scotland") mainly because he, like the rest of the royal line, were Catholic, which also accounts for the Irish support. BPC could never have reached as far as Derby only with 'Celtic' help.

With reference to Prince Charles Edward Stuart, let us not forget that the '45 was a civil war not a nationalist war. There were southern Scottish clans who fought against the highland clans and there were English who longed for a Stuart victory. The Hanovarians were usurpers to the rightful line of the Stuarts. God bless the king over the water.

Scots and Irish are both Gaelic. The language spoken by the Highlanders is pronounced, in English, Scots Gallic. The song is from Scotland because it is about the Young Pretender!

SlightlySusan, Being about the Young Pretender does not automatically make a song Scottish, and by every account (OTHER than yours) it is Irish. It is written in Irish Gaelic, which is, as much as this might go against your perception, different from Scots.
PS: The original version of Oro Se do Bheatha 'Bhaile, a VERY Irish song, was about Bonnie Prince Charlie as well. So stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

Actually, Susan, I think you will find the language is Irish Gaelic. Seán Mac Domhnaill was an Irish poet. But yes, the song is about Bonnie Prince Charlie, because the gaels in both Ireland and Scotland had common cause against the English at the time, and the Irish had hopes that a Scottish defeat of the English wolud 'free' them too. Hence their shared sorrow at Charles' defeat. So its an Irish song about a Scottish king.
