Fear freic agus froilic i seomra nó halla, Is é Dónall na Gréine, ar chuala tú a thréithe? Chaithfeadh sé seachtain ag ól i dtigh leanna, Is ná titeadh néal air, b’annamh díth céille air. D’ólfadh sé a dtuillfeadh sé, is dá mbeadh a thuilleadh aige A chóta is a léine, a chóta is a léine, Dónall na gine ‘gus Dónall na gloine ‘Gus Dónall na Gréine, Dónall na Gréine. Is táilliúir is gabha é, is printéir maith leabhar é, Dónall na gréine, chumadh sé véarsa, Bord agus leabaí a dhéanfadh go tapaigh, ‘Gus briste breá néata de chraiceann na gcaorach. D’ólfadh sé a dtuillfeadh sé, is dá mbeadh a thuilleadh aige A chóta is a léine, a chóta is a léine, Dónall na gine ‘gus Dónall na gloine ‘Gus Dónall na Gréine, Dónall na Gréine. Níl aon bhean i gCorcaigh nach raibh leis i gcumann Ná cailíní óga, singil is pósta, Dá mbréagadh is dá mealladh le sé lá na seachtaine Le bladar is bréaga, eachtraí is scéalta. D’ólfadh sé a dtuillfeadh sé, is dá mbeadh a thuilleadh aige A chóta is a léine, a chóta is a léine, Dónall na gine ‘gus Dónall na gloine ‘Gus Dónall na Gréine, Dónall na Gréine Tá Dónall ar meisce is a bhean ag ól uisce, Is na leanaí ag béicigh, na leanaí ag béicigh Tá Dónall ar meisce is a bhean ag ól uisce, Is na páistí ag béicigh, na páistí ag béicigh D’ólfadh sé a dtuillfeadh sé, is dá mbeadh a thuilleadh aige A chóta is a léine, a chóta is a léine, Dónall na gine ‘gus Dónall na gloine ‘Gus Dónall na Gréine, Dónall na Gréine (x2)
Isn't our wee lassie Brighde so lovely playing her SSP's! She is so talented and humble. But she holds her own with all the other vocal and instrumental musicians -- too right! Bravo for this gorgeous rendition.
Many beautiful voices and hearts, with one mind to make unique and lovely music to share with the world. What a gift! Especially when so much hate is in our world. I am so moved to see that there is still good people with great talent with such a love of their heritage and music. Thanks so much!
Beautiful voices and wonderful accompaniment. Two pipers and a harpist. An embarrassment of riches. Northumbrian small pipes and Uilleann pipes together. Doesn't get much better.
