Fear A' Bhàta - Concert at Daonscoil

This song was sung at the concert at Daonscoil 09. Here are the lyrics as gaeilge.

Fhir a'bhàta, na ho ro eile
Fhir a'bhàta, na ho ro eile
Fhir a'bhàta, na ho ro eile
Mo shoraigh slàn leat 's gach àit'an téid thu

Is tric mi 'sealltainn o'n chnoc a's àirde
Dh'fheuch am faic mi fear a'bhàta
An tig thu an-diùigh no'n tig thu a-màireach?
'S mur tig thu idir gur truagh a tà mi


Fhir a'bhàta, na ho ro eile
Fhir a'bhàta, na ho ro eile
Fhir a'bhàta, na ho ro eile
Mo shoraigh slàn leat 's gach àit'an téid thu

Tha mo chridhe-sa briste, brùite
'S tric na deòir a'ruith o m'shùilean
An tig thu a-nochd no'm bi mo dhúil riut
No'n dùin mi'n dorus le osna thùrsaich?

Fhir a'bhàta, na ho ro eile
Fhir a'bhàta, na ho ro eile
Fhir a'bhàta, na ho ro eile
Mo shoraigh slàn leat 's gach àit'an téid thu

Haha, I wondered what you meant by 'goo' singing for a bit! :p

I was there when this guy sang this song, and being a mere learner of Gaeilge (and since this was at an Irish-language Daonscoil), I simply assumed it was in Irish. Just surprised.

goo singing

an extra accent - different spellings and pronunciations

but similar yes

Mo chara go deas, is this song in Scottish Gaelic? I only noticed because of the lyrics you provided. Reminds me as usual of that quote: "What's the difference between Irish and Scots Gaelic? - about 600 words..." :)
