track: Na Laethe Bhi - Clannad - Banba
Lyrics (translation from Gaelic)
Your protection and your friendship
Were always desired,
And my hearts great love
Stories and songs
Old as the mountains
Strong and brave with age.

Goodbye to the days that were, turning so lightheartedly
Goodbye to the days that were
Goodbye to the night
Turning on the first hour
Goodbye to the days that were.

At the sight of the sea
And the sun on the seashore
And the great love of my heart
Were stories and Bhalar
In three Mhici Gorra
Ancient islands like a vision (or dream)

I had a sweetheart
From summer up to winter
My dearest love.

It's "Bhalar", not ballads.Bhalar is a king of demons in the Celt myths.He has the evil eye,it's always closed,another eye is opened.When the cursed eye is opend,the people whoever watch his eye,will die. And also,mici gorra is "Mhici Gorra"It's maybe the place name of Celt.

17 years ago I bought Clannads Banba album just in hopes of hearing some Robin of Sherwood themes. Though what I was looking for was absent, this first track was the most hauntingly beautiful thing I ever heard then, and it still is some 13 years later.
