@69soulful I was wrong, in scottish gaelic bh is always a bh but in Irish it's either a W sound or a V sound depending on the vowel after wards. I speak and study irish, not scots gaelic that why I got confused :)

@AyeYirMa no it's fear a vat(h)a not wata, BH in gaelic is pronounced a soft 'v' as in violin

Well done! I was captivated.

My aural journeys have led me all over the world, and many times to the lands of the Gaels, but I had never heard this song before. I am very pleased to have heard it for the first time through your lovely voice! Thank you.
Lassie Lassie, you could bring a tear to a stone. If I close my eyes I can see Gairloch Bay, and feel the mist on my face. When singing a Gaelic song try adding a bit rebellion to your heart. Remember we are a people who sing about how much we miss home while sittiong infront of our fire. Oh and each area has an accent in the Gaelic there is no one pronounciation. When sung to a Gael they will hear the beauty and love you.
