Taken from the Auricept na n'Eces, the pre-Christian history of the origins of the Irish people and their language.

The Origin of the Irish Language

When the Gods saw the sons of Adam were building a great tower in the city of Ur in the land of babylon. They said, "behold, they are become like us, let us go down and destroy their great tower and confuse their languages so that they will forget who they are".

The Gaels, who had been down in Babylon at that time, were third in the line when then new languages were being handed out by the Gods, and they were given that most beautiful language, which is the language we know today as Gaelige. Perfect in syntax and in tonality.

"Where are ye from, lads?" said one of the Gods.

"We are from the land of the Gael, a small island in the far west at the edge of the great ocean where once stood fair Atlantis."

"Ah," said the God, "you will never see the stars in the Heavens, and you will soon forget us."

The God thought for a moment, "Behold, I will draw on you a map of the Universe, so that you will remember us in the dark nights when you cannot see the stars because of the mist which covers your small island." And, with that he threw out his hand over the Gael and sprinkled a fine dust over them which left them covered in freckles- 'briciní' which in Irish means 'little stars'.

"At the end of time, when the last of the Gaels are gathered on the Hill at Uisneach, which will be the last hill standing in Ireland at that time, you will form a complete map of the entire universe, and in that moment, you will remember everything."

And that is how the Gael got the language, and the freckles.

  • Why didn't the bastards just get rid of the clouds?

  • its a beautiful story, looking at the comments i feel it's a shame that some people have used the comments section of this this video as a soap box and an excuse to spout their religious and political rubbish, but alas such is the world we live in and these are just peoples opinions, and as they say opinions are like arse holes, everybody's got one.

  • @greenmagoos I doubt it.

  • @asstro0llies911 You should learn to spell.

  • @MagicTellaVision You cannot be born again unless you are born again of God's Holy Spirit. Pelasgius and Patrick were not Middle Eastern Extremists. Patrick was a Romananised Briton.

  • I have never in my 55 years as an Irish woman ever heard of freckles called little stars.

  • The Irish for star is "realt" and little stars would be realtíne or realtíní. There are many people who have freckles. I have seen a Chinese person with freckles.

  • I am Irish. Unfortunately you have NOT supplied any SCRIPTURES to prove this. What you have done is spun more UNSCRIPTUAL custom & and tradition. Which YAHUAH's SCRIPTURES warn us NOT to do.

    QOLASIM{Colossians} 2:8 = " And see to it that no man makes prey of you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary matters of the world, and not according to MESSIAH." {YAHUSHUAH HaMashiach} Be Blessed.

  • that's brilliant! I've had to fav this so i can rewatch n listen, top man

  • @aplphaomega OK... You're a moron. Just google it. Scientists just had to make a research concerning your po0r cognitive abilities...
