To correct some folk on here. This is not an Irish song but instead it is a song from the Western Highlands of Scotland.

@bloobear1 Thanks for the clarification. I think we can all agree that this traditional Gaelic song from Scotland is a favorite among those who appreciate its haunting mournful qualities.
The Highland tunes are among the most bonny at any rate! Cheers!

Anthea Lawrence.
Mooncoyne, an Irish band based out of Tacoma, WA, began performing in the summer of 1995. Participants in a bluegrass and Irish jam session at the University of Puget Sound brought it together, which explains the band's original name, Puget Sounds. Subsequently, the band changed its name to Sláinte to emphasize its focus on traditional Irish music.
This song was from their final CD.
