Coisich a rùin - Catriona MacDonald

There isn't enough space to include the English translation here so I'll put it into the comments instead.

Coisich a rùin (Walk My Love)

THANK YOU SO MUCH

I have been searching for this for so long since it disappeared from the Beag air Bheag site! I had only just recently found Karen Matheson's version (because on the site it originally said it was by her) but it wasn't the same, now I've found it and the lyrics too! TAPADH LEIBH :))

[animalunaris]

@mjhowie1 Aww, you're very welcome! I love this version too and I've never found it anywhere else!

[Donegal]

I dont know the singer. She sings like Fiona MacNeil. When was it recorded?

[animalunaris]

It was recorded from the BBCs ' beag air bheag' Gaelic learning website though they don't have it up there anymore, I'm not sure of when it was recorded as I have never been able to find any other reference to it on the internet unfortunately.
