When songs like this are done the right way you can feel each word and note with every part of your body. The strings at the end pull the tears out just fine.
Despite listening to this song for literal years, I just discovered this is the same ballad (in English) as Swallowed by the Sea by All Them Witches and I can't get over it. They both are masterpieces.
He controls his intonation and delivery just so perfectly. Masterful, masterful performance. His piano playing is outstanding too, with masterful glissandos which beautifully enhance, yet don't drown out the equally INCREDIBLE flute playing. It's an extremely soulful piece, performed ASTOUNDINGLY WELL by all.
Liam is a musical genius. I can’t understand why TG4, Conradh na Gaeilge and Gael Linn don’t record him singing the best 50 or 100 songs i nGaeilge ? It would be a treasure trove for future generations, and for baritone voices to sing along to. Liam has only recorded 4 or 5 songs as Gaeilge to-date.

What will you leave your wife, little brother? What will you leave your wife, flower of young men?

Respect to our Celtic Agus Gael cousins in Alba. It is a beautiful lament. We all survived Cromwell and his kin. We are seeds that the English buried ,but we grew stronger. Never forget our suffering and teach our Children of the old Celtic paths. Saoirse Agus Saor.
Americans, keep in mind WHY our ancestors left the Old World, there are hints buried in all of these songs on WHY Ireland and Scotland were so toxic to live in. Better to be in America and unburdened by the ancient blood-feuds!
Guys this was truly the most beautifully crafted Celtic track that has ever graced my young Irish ears. Honestly hats off and fires lit just please never stop singing the old tunes...may they echo through every age to come 🙏 Love to you all your Anam Cara Luke Kelly 🎸🧙🏼♂️🚐🧚♀️🔥🍀
The flutist is Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh. She is an Irish singer with many of her own albums, but does play the flute beautifully as well. You will find the 3 primary musicians, Liam, Julie Fowlis, and Muireann, performing on the Highland Sessions series of videos, and a bit on Transatlantic Sessions.
It was calling me to move to Ireland and speak this beautiful language. The language of (some of) my ancestors. It makes me feel connected to my family’s history and knowing this beautiful language once was spoken by one of my ancestors. And it fills me with longing to live there not just in that country but in the time before all the Norse and English influence. Just pure Irish with their culture alone in the most peaceful and beautiful land in the world. When everyone there spoke this amazing language.
@@ricochet4674 Fair enough, but just to note that Irish as we know it today wasn't spoken "before all the Norse and English influence" (nor before Brittonic influence for that matter). All languages continually influence each other, and people travelled all over the British isles and to nearby Europe.
Im Polski but I Am here in USA...I was a 47 year old when I married my Irish DONEGAL hubby! It's never to late to marry your Soul mate! BARB! KEEP the Catholic Faith!
We used to sing a bastardised version of this song when I was a child, but this is its truth and it spirit. I found it by chance today, at a time when I am experiencing grief, and it's hard to explain what it did. Maybe it confirmed that grief is a pain known deeply in our cells, in our humanity, in our souls. And that, today, was what above all I needed, to share the pain. Thank you for this.
‘The story we had … [was] that his newly-married wife… gave him an eel full of poison for his dinner. And that his sister was sitting by his bedside, asking him questions. ‘Where were you all day? Cé raibh tú ó mhaidin, a dhriotháirín-ó?’ And then, ‘What will you leave your father? What will you leave your mother? What will you leave your brother? You know. What will you leave your wife?’ And he said, ‘Ifreann mar dhúiche aice. Hell may be her destiny. Flaithis a bheith dúinte uirthe. Heaven may be shut against her.’ And then he had two sons, according to this story, too, and she asked him, ‘What will you leave your little sons?’ ‘Hopping,’ he said ‘from place to place, begging their food,’ he said, ‘and ending up with the same way’ he said ‘I’m dying now.’ He was bitter, and who wouldn’t be? And this is the way they used to sing it at home.’ Cé raibh tú ó mhaidin, a dhriotháirín-ó? Cé raibh tú ó mhaidin, a phlúir na bhfear óg?

The destruction of traditional Gaelic culture is a real and serious thing.To get informed and try and do something is not fringe or 'far right' or anything else like it. We are starting in Ireland finally talk about it but there is a violent fight against it! The media\government and even laws are trying to squash even asking questions!

@Macavity Macavity I am so sad to hear it. The sleepy well-fed natives are their own worst enemy. "You can go on and protest and lose sleep trying to tell folk. But I'm alright Jack" mentality. Beautiful Scotland. We are being told here by our piece of dog sht Taoiseach (PM) that we should "Embrace density". GRRRRR. Nothing makes me MORE furious. 4.5 million here 10 years ago, very little crime rate. The country was coming on nicely until the fabricated property bubble. Then it all went to hell. The un want to put 65million here. Like Scotland, Ireland is overall nicely sparsely populated. We need to keep it that way and protect our culture and ancient legacies.
@@marynadononeill Well said for all that Mary. I am following Irish patriot alright. Great stuff. If we don't, not only will songs like THIS be gone in this video, but there will be no one to sing them as the PEOPLE will also be gone!!! They want to PLANT 65MILLION here on this little 4.8million little aul rock of ours in the Atlantic. Bstrds.
It is simply marvelous. I admire the power of language, the power of word, and it's musical dymension, the sound. Through language entire cultures live, survive through time or die... in the emptiness of the act of forgetting. Time is something interesting, the center of our hopes, but the very enemy against which we constantly fight with our poems, our songs and words... This is what means to be human: to speak, to sing, and to constantly fight Time, and at the same time, praying to the Ages that our memories carry on.
Scandinavian music comes from Gaelic. Old Irish wS spoken in every cpuntry in thr workd befire Arabic etc. Then people would chop peoples heads off if they spoke God's language. To be a Hebrew or Iberu you had to go to Ireland and get an education for 20 years So all tjexaealtjy people in tje wotldcsent their children to Iteland to get an education. Norway. Kings kidnapped Irish women to make them their wives because they were so beautiful.
Do you guys know about any Manx music? My family comes from all over the British isles and Ireland. I'm learning Manx Gaelic and a Celtic Pagan, my father is fluent in Irish Gaelic and a Gaelic Celtic Druid, and we preserve all of the stories, mythology, and follow ancient cultural and social beliefs. To help me learn manx, I would love to hear more Manx Gaelic music, if you could find some!
Thank you for real Irish/celtic music, welcome to Gladstone Queensland Australia, it is a shame or irish pub doesn't provide the real music of the irish, they don't even know the uilleann pipes or durham drum;:::))
grioghair macgrioghair Damn straight! My dad’s family is from Skye and two of my ancestors disappeared at Culloden. This touches me deeply. I dabble in Gaelic but it’s the hardest language I’ve ever been exposed to. (German and Russian were far easier)
agreed letter pronunciation is so different i also only dabble with gaelic but to hear it i believe it to be the most beautiful language in the world ,so expressive my own family were dugald ciar gregorach and were forced to leave scotland firstly to france and then to the americas my owngreat grandfather only returning to england in around 1890 following the destruction of the native american lifeway after the greasy grass at which he claimed to have fought as a 14 year old boy along with his father ,both incidentally on the winning side
He looks like he came up out of the sea, wandered inside, sat down at the piano and showed the rest of us how music should be done.
Aye!!!!
Or from the distant past when life hung from a mystic thread, and our strength was in our own arm and shoulders.
and then he turned into a tree
Haha yes
He sang one of the the Eurovision Song Contest intervals in the mid-1990s.
This mans voice rattled my bones.
The words I know and all too well the sentiment behind them. 🙏🏻
The Celtic spirit in human form! II didn't understand a single word but was still moved to tears
When songs like this are done the right way you can feel each word and note with every part of your body. The strings at the end pull the tears out just fine.
This is without doubt the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard, ever. Diolch yn fawr o wlad fy nhadau, Cymru am byth!

Tout simplement extraordinaire !
Profoundly beautiful. Thank you for keeping the spirit of our ancestors alive.
Why on earth is this age-restricted?
Possibly because the AI can't verify that it isn't 100% profanity / other unwanted material. Small language = no recognition by the pseudo-state.
Humbled, tearful, mournful. ❤
oh what a beautiful chant....simply sublime
This transports me to the land of my ancestors.
Despite listening to this song for literal years, I just discovered this is the same ballad (in English) as Swallowed by the Sea by All Them Witches and I can't get over it. They both are masterpieces.
First thing i did after reading the above is go look it up 'cause i'm big fan of All Them Witches. Came as a surprise. ;-)

This music is so soulful....it is in my blood stream!
I,m touched by this music in unusual and beautiful ways
just breathtaking
Can I fall in love with Ireland any more?
It could be gone in the next 40 to 50 years and so will na hÉireannach if we allow mass immigration to continue unhalted. We're already at 80℅ in only 20 years, with 34℅ of under 15s having at least one non-Irish parent.
I am sure that the same thing is happening in Scotland, as it's happening all over the UK.
The people behind all of this, care nothing for this beautiful, unique and rich culture that we have.
We are predicted to be a minority in our own countries by 2040.
@@Sionnach1601 The people behind this are globalists.
The destruction of traditional Gaelic culture is a real and serious thing.To get informed and try and do something is not fringe or 'far right' or anything else like it. We are starting in Ireland finally talk about it but there is a violent fight against it! The media\government and even laws are trying to squash even asking questions! This man is standing up. www.irishpatriots.com czcams.com/channels/mZT7978t08mpJJGD-SdRaQ.html Also The NP czcams.com/video/cvQhxEk69to/video.html
@Macavity Macavity I am so sad to hear it. The sleepy well-fed natives are their own worst enemy. "You can go on and protest and lose sleep trying to tell folk. But I'm alright Jack" mentality.
Beautiful Scotland. We are being told here by our piece of dog sht Taoiseach (PM) that we should
"Embrace density".
GRRRRR. Nothing makes me MORE furious.
4.5 million here 10 years ago, very little crime rate. The country was coming on nicely until the fabricated property bubble. Then it all went to hell.
The un want to put 65million here. Like Scotland, Ireland is overall nicely sparsely populated.
We need to keep it that way and protect our culture and ancient legacies.
@@marynadononeill Well said for all that Mary. I am following Irish patriot alright. Great stuff.
If we don't, not only will songs like THIS be gone in this video, but there will be no one to sing them as the PEOPLE will also be gone!!!
They want to PLANT 65MILLION here on this little 4.8million little aul rock of ours in the Atlantic. Bstrds.
Exellente chanson. Talent au rdv pour une belle voix 🎵🎶 un plaisir
It is simply marvelous. I admire the power of language, the power of word, and it's musical dymension, the sound. Through language entire cultures live, survive through time or die... in the emptiness of the act of forgetting. Time is something interesting, the center of our hopes, but the very enemy against which we constantly fight with our poems, our songs and words... This is what means to be human: to speak, to sing, and to constantly fight Time, and at the same time, praying to the Ages that our memories carry on.
This tune sounds like old Scandinavian music. I like it
Scandinavian music comes from Gaelic. Old Irish wS spoken in every cpuntry in thr workd befire Arabic etc. Then people would chop peoples heads off if they spoke God's language. To be a Hebrew or Iberu you had to go to Ireland and get an education for 20 years
So all tjexaealtjy people in tje wotldcsent their children to Iteland to get an education. Norway. Kings kidnapped Irish women to make them their wives because they were so beautiful.
This lifted my soul
what ever the were singing didt matter think I must have been there in another ife ,wonderful
Asa Highlander with an Irish Mam...I would say that this is.....WONDERFUL. Thank you to all here. My spirit is flying.
Listened to this beautiful haunting music while touring Scotland. I cannot hear it often enough.
Michael Halligan. Thank you for post and music. Wonderful holiday in Scotland!!
@Michael Halligan Ireland is not part of GB, Liberty or death
@Michael Halligan delete that flag off your comment please.
Superbe comme toujours 🙏🏻
Beautiful music, beautiful people !!!
Do you guys know about any Manx music? My family comes from all over the British isles and Ireland. I'm learning Manx Gaelic and a Celtic Pagan, my father is fluent in Irish Gaelic and a Gaelic Celtic Druid, and we preserve all of the stories, mythology, and follow ancient cultural and social beliefs. To help me learn manx, I would love to hear more Manx Gaelic music, if you could find some!
Its a good idea to search it out - music helps a language to survive, even to flourish. Good luck in your search
Interesting..
How could there be 22??? I just don't understand. This is so so beautiful.
getting gooseskin ... everytime i'm listening
Mo chridhe! Mo chridhe! Tapadh leat...
Glè mhath !
music such as this gives us reasons to be decent, to be better, to be anything at all.
very soulful and beautiful!
That rug really ties the room together
Thank you for real Irish/celtic music, welcome to Gladstone Queensland Australia, it is a shame or irish pub doesn't provide the real music of the irish, they don't even know the uilleann pipes or durham drum;:::))
ian watts You mean ‘An Bodhran’ when referring to the drum
@@iamdbatatnight5600 lololol Aye that is ye one, cheer's from Australia

Very moving.......takes me back to my roots
Wow-simply unbelievable!! That was a direct link to a distant lost culture. One of the best things I’ve ever heard. Ever...
we arent lost we are still here my friend in our hills and lochs and winds our spirit is not gone wed but wait again our time tillidh mi
as long as theres 100
grioghair macgrioghair Damn straight! My dad’s family is from Skye and two of my ancestors disappeared at Culloden. This touches me deeply. I dabble in Gaelic but it’s the hardest language I’ve ever been exposed to. (German and Russian were far easier)
agreed letter pronunciation is so different i also only dabble with gaelic but to hear it i believe it to be the most beautiful language in the world ,so expressive my own family were dugald ciar gregorach and were forced to leave scotland firstly to france and then to the americas my owngreat grandfather only returning to england in around 1890 following the destruction of the native american lifeway after the greasy grass at which he claimed to have fought as a 14 year old boy along with his father ,both incidentally on the winning side
Nothing lost about it.
Very beautiful ! ;) one of the best moment in Port !
432hrz . Our heart and our life..
