    Instantly fell in love with this voice and the music. I'm a Scotsman but my kin come from mayo on the west coast. This sound does something to my spirit that words cannot discribe. Simply outstanding Dan McCabe 👏🍀💚

    This song feels so so soothing to me just feels like I'm hame ,😊My grandfather was from the Basque country and my other grandfather was from Ireland I was born in Scotland and still live here I looked up my ancestry and found out I was more Irish and Scottish than Spanish and I'm so proud to have Irish and Scottish heritage and very proud to have that little but very important Basque blood .

    At Oranmore in the county Galway
    One pleasant evening in the month of May
    I spied a damsel, she was young and handsome
    And her beauty took my breath away
    She worn no jewelry, nor costly diamonds
    No paint nor powder, no none at all
    But she worn a bonnet with ribbons on it
    And 'round her shoulders was the Galway shawl
    We kept on walking she kept on talking
    'Till her fathers cottage came in to view
    She said Oh young man Oh wont you come in and play, to please him, 'The Foggy Dew'
    She sat me down beside the hearthstone
    I could see her father he was six feet tall
    And soon her mother, had the kettle humming
    All I could think of, was the Galway shawl
    She worn no jewelry, nor costly diamonds
    No paint nor powder, no none at all
    But she worn a bonnet with ribbons on it
    And 'round her shoulders was the Galway shawl
    I played, 'The Black Bird', 'The Stacks of Barley'
    'Rodney's Glory' and 'The Foggy Dew'
    She sang each note like an Irish linnet
    And her eyes they tear up,her eyes of blue
    'Twas early, early, all in the morning
    I hit the road for old Donegal
    She said, 'goodbye sir', she cried and kissed me
    But my heart remain with the Galway shawl
    She worn no jewelry, nor costly diamonds
    No paint nor powder, no none at all
    But she worn a bonnet with ribbons on it
    And 'round her shoulders was the Galway shawl
    And 'round her shoulders was the galway shawl
