- The lyrics to this beautiful Irish ballad were penned by Percy French in the 1890's. The actual tune to the song was borrowed from another Irish song called "Bendemeer's Stream" written by Thomas Moore. This song can be found on my CD 'Songs of Our Heritage' which is available on iTunes at: itunes.apple.com/us/album/son.... CDs can be purchased at: tomroush.us/CD%20Display.htm

Very beautyfull song of Irish. About love together with English. About love to London. About love to whole Britains islands, but most love to tehir mountains- from hearts of Irish- I told.
I think so love together with English is more true than history of Wars with English.
Myna thanks for this boutifull music. I was learned many about British history in this song- more than history education books.
Great images, brilliant singer. Thank goodness for the lyrics too.
Congratulations Tom! An excellent arrangement so faithful and authentic to the original Irish tune! Made me weep! Greetings from Israel.

Thomas Hammond Roush has died due to head injuries after a fall. He suffered a lengthy time in the hospital before he gave up his Spirit on August 30, 2021.
Tom was the son of Bert Hammond Roush, ( Captain of a River Boat ) and his Mother, Stella Joanna ( Riley ) Roush.
Tom also has a twin brother, Terry Roush.
He was a treasure for preserving and passing on the music and cultural heritage of the Anglo-Celtic world as reflected in the American South.
Bravo !! 👏
Fantastic
In one verse it mentions the king of England, however in 1890 when this is written, wasn’t England under queen Victoria?
Yes, but this song might be set before 1890 - I've heard another version, which doesn't mention buses at all, and for some reason this song always makes me think of Fanny Burney (an Eighteenth century English novelist).
At least that verse was written in 1903 after King Edward VII's official visit to Ireland
Любимый мой!
MIDI bagpipes?
A perfect song for winding up the Irish
Completely wrong This is a tongue in cheek song written by Percy French a writer of many parody songs The Irish sense of humour obviously lost on you
@@dannyboy5517 I love the songs of Percy French. The lyrics to most of them are very clever and also poignant. For some reason I compare them to the clever and witty lyrics of the works of Gilbert and Sullivan. There’s something about that era, which produced such talent.
@@katperson7332 Sullivan was Irish too
@@dannyboy5517 you’re right-I’d forgotten that!
@@katperson7332I was born less than a hundred yards from the west clare railway line and watched that train go by every day when I was young Gone now and missed If you like those songs there is an you tube program by the singer Brendan O Dowda on Percy French and his life
