@jonmorr777 I know we'd all like to claim this beautiful song but you'r right to correct false info!
-
just love that line-"and the cares of tomorrow must wait 'till this day is done"
-
@UbiDuboi I'm a big admirer of the Poet Yeats, but this is a beautiful song even without Yeats' poem. It works for all the world, by the way.

@superdavies1 indeed it is not.It is a lake isle in Lough Gil in the Co.Sligo, so a very real place.
-
The Yates recitation is awsome. What does it matter who wrote the song. We know that both Ireland and Scotland are represented in Gordon Smiths Lyrics. I first heard this song on a tape by a lesser known Irish band and it struck a chord in my heart as a Scotsman and a country person. I have not yet found the definitive version of this innocent little song and I am now singing it myself in an effort to find it.

The ancient Roman word for Irish is Scotie. Scotland means land of the Irish. The Scots are merely Irish who could swim.
-
I was not being rude..sorry,, Lots of Irish and Scots tunes have similar "airs".. Lovely music who ever plays it.
-
No a real place
-
It is not Scottish.. Be proud of being Irish.. He is doing this song, , almost in a Sean Nos style.. Slainte go foil, mo chara
-
I do not beleive that it is a Scottish song...perhaps due to my fierce pride of my Irish heritage...however at any rate...it is a lovely ballad that makes my heart burn most ardently towards arriving on the shores of Ireland to live out the rest of my days there.

Scottish song written by a scot (Gordon Smith ) about Scotland!

without the Yeats piece, its just another folk song, and it works just as well for ireland as it does for scotland
