All true labels for him, but don't forget the most important one: Peacemaker. Like a lot of great soldiers throughout history, he recognized the limits of force and violence in creating lasting liberty, peace, and prosperity. He also looked inward and saw the imperfections of his own attitudes and approaches. As the movie concludes, it was ironic that he died while attempting to shift Ireland away from violent change.
Macushla! Macushla! Your sweet voice is calling, Calling me softly, Again and again, Macushla! Macushla! I hear it in vain. Macushla, Macushla, Your white arms are reaching, I feel them enfolding, Caressing me still. Fling them out from the darkness, My lost love, Macushla, Let them find me and bind me Again, if they will. Macushla! Macushla! Your red lips are saying That death is a dream, And love is for aye, Then awaken, Macushla, Awake from your dreaming, My blue-eyed Macushla, Awaken to stay.
The greatest of us all Many irish have no idea how ireland has never recovered since his loss the english feared him more than any irishman in history.
One of the great what if history questions: If he had lived and his vision of an open, outward looking free Ireland had prevailed over de Valera's priest ridden backward one which left Ireland mired in poverty for over half a century.
@@mikegalvin9801 Well -said Mike... things would have been a lot more positive for the country and for so many people`s lives, many of which were blighted by the `treatment` meted out to the likes of unnmarried mothers and so-called `` illegitimate`` children, at the hands of the catholic church, who ran quasi prisons, here, with the full connivance of the State, in which they were incarcerated/born... it would have been so much better, had Michael Collins lived.

Michael Collins is a legend, a national hero, a badass Irishman

My favourite scene in the whole film.
No one could do justice to this role but Liam.
This...beautiful, haunting & just enough of a nod to maudlin heartache 💔
Super film, but a wonderful surprise to find this as background to one of the scenes.
Million Dollar Baby brought me here
Macushla! Macushla!
Your sweet voice is calling,
Calling me softly, Again and again,
Macushla! Macushla!
I hear it in vain.
Macushla, Macushla,
Your white arms are reaching,
I feel them enfolding,
Caressing me still.
Fling them out from the darkness,
My lost love, Macushla,
Let them find me and bind me
Again, if they will.
Macushla! Macushla!
Your red lips are saying
That death is a dream,
And love is for aye,
Then awaken, Macushla,
Awake from your dreaming,
My blue-eyed Macushla,
Awaken to stay.
Thank you for the words I will sing them with love to my own tune. Emme

Thanks, for a moment I thought "Makushla" was a Russian name.
最高だね！もう本当に涙止まらないよ！
Thanks for translation.

Never heard of Frank Patterson but he and his band are very good. But this is such a great song. Even better with a few beers.
Listen to the John McCormack version.
G and S concert at local church. Everybody leaving; lady pianist sits down at the piano and starts playing Macushla. Great end to the evening!
Long live auld Ireland
It’s so beautiful!
Awesome :')
My darling....my vein....my blood.
