Rosc Catha na Mumhan (sean-nos style) by Máire Níc Liam

Rosc Catha na Mumhan - Munster war song. It's a song about the war between munster and england in the 1700's, and at the time a french ship was secretly coming to aid munster. It describes it as someone who was watching the ship come as they were on the shore and how this ship will save them from their miseries. But actually, it doens't mention it in the song, because this is a song of hope of aid, but it doesn't mention that the ship never actually came. The british found out about it coming and attacked it by suprise while it was just about to get to the shore.

That was really good, sung by a beautiful girl. In the times that are in it, it's little moments like this, that remind me what a special place we live in, and what a rich culture we come from....
