Tha Mo Ghaol Air Àird a' Chuan (English title "My Love Is On The High Seas") is a traditional Scots Gaelic song performed by Julie Fowlis from North Uist in the Western Isles of Scotland. (English translation of lyrics below.)
The song features on Julie's debut album "Mar A Tha Mo Chridhe (As My Heart Is)" released on Spit & Polish, distributed by Cadiz Music.
It features in a trailer for the Disney Pixar animated movie "Brave" which is set in the ancient highlands of Scotland with characters voiced by Kelly Macdonald, Billy Connolly, Emma Thompson, Craig Ferguson, Kevin McKidd and Robbie Coltrane.
A TV spot for Brave featuring "My Love Is On The High Seas" was broadcast during an ad break in the US Oscars ceremony in Feb 2012 with a viewing audience of over 38 million.
Julie Fowlis also sings two songs - in English - in the soundtrack to Brave; "Touch The Sky" and "Into The Open Air".
English Translation:
On a quiet evening at the beginning of May
When the bat was in the skies
I heard a tearful young maiden
Singing beneath the shadow of the green branches
The sun was setting in the sea
And no stars yet graced the sky
When the young girl sang sorrowfully
"My love is on the high seas"
The night's dew began to fall
Each bloom yielding softly to the droplets
The wind blew in a fragrant breeze
Bringing life and renewal to each field
The girl tunefully sang her song
Quiet and peaceful like the June dew
And this chorus constantly repeated
"My love is on the high seas"
Day darkened and the stars shone
Setting their course amongst the clouds
The maiden sat, burdened by her sadness
Her singing could not have been more soothing
I moved closer to the young woman
Singing of her love sailing on the sea
Oh sweet was her sad lament
"My love is on the high seas"
The music enticed me
Nearer to the brown-haired maiden of the warm eyes
And she prayed to the King of Heaven
"Protect my love on the high seas"
Her heart was breaking with love
When I took her by the hand
"Wipe your eyes, your love is safe
I have returned to you from the high seas"
This video was made by Forest Of Black in Glasgow, Scotland.

This woman has one of the finest voices on planet Earth. She's part of the reason I'm learning Scottish Gaelic now.

@tomgreene6579 6 лет назад

This woman should be declared a national treasure....she is so damn good she sings the sweet music...long may she last..

@stevenmccarthy6810 6 лет назад

Julie's voice warms the gale, quiets the raging main, and sets the sails for all eternities. Tu is gael mo chridh.

@TheAnn2shoes 10 лет назад

Thank you Commonwealth Games for pointing me in the direction of Julie Fowlis. I've visited North Uist but am ashamed to say I'd not heard of her. A beautiful voice singing in a beautiful language.

@MarcelGomesPan 11 лет назад

I have always had this love for the Gaelic language and culture "despite" being Swedish. It is an interest i guess. The Fowlis / Foulis (if i´m not misinformed) are a sept of the Munro clan, known as "The Invincibles" in Sweden in the 1700s (when they where often officers in the Swedish army). She is bewitching,talented, beautiful and just generally brings forth a warm love for what she is doing, a warmth i luckily have no defence against.

Julie Fowlis is a treasure and a songstress that evokes the beauty of that Celtic land....Scotland.

@Blind2Society 9 лет назад

I didn't understand a word she sang but I'm pretty sure I just fell in love.

Nothing like the voice of a angel singing the gaelic.

@rayesworld 10 лет назад

Scots gaelic is so beautiful. I cried.

@tomjoy6829 11 лет назад

Listening to an ancestral language will spark a resonance, even if we dont understand it on a concious level.. Scots Gaelic is like that for me, as is Old English.. Then again.. with a girl as beautiful as this, and how she sings.... how could it not touch the heart?

@blunk778 6 лет назад

Showed this to a friend and got the response "Damn moon speak!" I was laughing my ass off too much to smack him

@Sabhail_ar_Alba 10 лет назад

Nice to hear the old language is becoming in vogue again , thanks to Julie and many others. Oh, and don't let anyone tell you it's a peripheral language only ever confined to the Highlands - a simple glance at the place names on Google maps should suffice. My family name hails from the southern lowlands - Balmaclellan Scottish Gaelic: Baile MhicIllFhaolain ( son of a servant or follower of Saint Fillan.) , meaning town of the MacLellans.

@rossmclean5089 10 лет назад

Need to teach the old language in schools more, give us a bit of pride in ourselves again! Always found Gaelic a fascinating language :) my family name in Gaelic is MacgilleEthain which means son of the servant of Saint John. Come from a very proud clan that can trace its roots all the way back to the dark ages and the Dalraidic migrations :)

@thomasmcginley7944 8 лет назад

Amen to that!!! F*** Spanish!!! If I want to learn a language, I would want to learn what my ancestors spoke. Which would be Irish-Gaelic & German.

@geoffreyharris5682 7 лет назад

The death of the clan system was the thinking that the land belonged to the chiefs. That more than any other factor, the conquest by the English, or the over-population led to its demise.

@RestingScotFace 10 лет назад

Keep it alive Julia. The songs you sing today keep the wisdom of our people alive for future generations.

@RestingScotFace 10 лет назад

The wisdom and teachings and stories of a people are contained their language. When a language dies, all that the people are dies as well, all the wisdom and traditions. Songs and singers like this keep that alive for the next generation

I don't know what it is about this song and music video. I don't speak or understand Galice but in the last 3 months I have been suffering from a deep dark grieving depression over a love I may neever relies and this song gives me peace and hope. Thank you. I have watch this beautiful song hundreds of times it always beautiful to me.

@sylla_headhunter4725 8 лет назад

And now I have one more reason to learn this beautiful, enchanting language~ I love your voice, it's absolutely beautiful

@justinfitzsimmons3362 11 лет назад

i would hate to see this language being forgotten it gotta be the the most beautiful out of all the languages on the earth .i would love to teach this to my kids so when the others kids will be guessing what language they are speaking and of course they should teach it in school instead of french and the Spanish which is to common .

So nice to get this music in a Disney/Pixar Film. There have been a lot of great Disney songs but they don't always have to be Pop Music.

+TristanandIsolt Imagine... Christina Aguilera instead of Julie Fowlis in Pixars Brave. That would be a huge mistake.

@sKt4uRy 11 лет назад

This song reminds me of the Highlander serials back on 1990s. Love both the song and the serial. The song makes me not only feel calm and peaceful, but want to watch Highlander again as well.

I really hope you'll continue to honor the Gaelic language. Where I'm from we have forgotten the "old" language. But a few of us still try to hang on.

@UISTMAN59 8 лет назад

Beautifully sung :) This was not originally a Gaelic song. It was composed by Bernard Covert in America sometime before 1850 under the title "Jamie's On The Stormy Seas." (Google New England Music Scrapbook) It was translated into Gaelic by Henry Whyte of Easdale, Argyll and arrived in Canada in the "St Columba Collection of Gaelic Songs."

@barvdw 6 лет назад

Which some might not see it that way, but is actually better, as it shows Gaelic as a living, learning culture and language, ready to learn of foreign examples, and not som artifact from a museum.

@oisinolochlainn4437 10 лет назад

***** You are right this is the language of the Gales, I also agree with your comment that us Irish are not Celts. But there is a lot of your comments I don't agree with

@DonegalRaymie201 10 лет назад

Oisin O Lochlainn What are those you take issue with, pray tell? P.S. Gaels not 'Gales', (the latter is the windy sort!, as in "Blowing a gale"!)

@oisinolochlainn4437 10 лет назад

***** A typing error, but you still knew what I was on about. As for my issues with some of your comments, there of little importance to me and I don't feel the need to discusses or debate them with you, as others have put you straight on those issues...Mórtas Gael

@justaguitardude 10 лет назад

im irish, grandma came over to the usa, and life goes on. first off i love women singers im spell bound by the tone ( nature im sure has something to do with this ) but add the accent. and im hooked. even tho growing up with all the women in the family having red hair. i sure i know where i get my stubbornness from. much love from the usa. grew up in oregon, now im in desert because doctors said be good for my health. sure the heat helps with chronic pain. but i sure miss the green, and grabbing my guitar and going for a walk into the woods and just losing my self. should of stayed. i probably be much healthier. but life is but luck to be here, so i cherish what i do have best i can even tho iv been through hell. keep singing, i need translations but even with out i still can make up what i think the song is about by the emotion, and that is good too. creative, one thing schools have done good to get rid of slowly, budget cuts etc... is the excuse. i say its to keep people from dreaming. rock on. chris,

Aye. My father and grandfather both speak it and I aways wished I could. I've been studying my other heritage language, Lakota, and love it.

@geoffreyharris5682 7 лет назад

Man. She is a really pretty thing, especially at 2:03. Is she as sweet as she looks?

@chrisborges7344 6 лет назад

Geoffrey Harris Much agreed.

@AndyHirt 11 лет назад

Fionn took the tune from "Jamie's on the Stormy Sea" by Bernard Covert, an American composer. So it was composed on the piano (he was an accompanist as well). There are also suggestions that Covert took it from a pipe tune.

@Deemonluv 11 лет назад

Oh for goodness sake! To all those in the comments below asking wat language this is: word of advice. READ the comments and u will probably find out through the many comments which tell u wat it is. But if u still can't find it, it is Scottish Gaelic, old Scottish language. Still happening and alive in some parts of scotland though. Anyway LOVE this song . It's beautiful and makes me wish I had some Scottish in me. xxxx

@Goblin_Ghost39 11 лет назад

I absolutely love this song for 2 reasons. 1) I have a Scottish heritage, which I am very proud of. 2) My love just left for the high seas....boot camp for the Navy. Not quite on the water yet, but he'll get there. lol

@thomasmcginley7944 8 лет назад

I couldn't understand a word of what she was singing but it sounded absolutely beautiful. Gaelic is the most enchanting language ever, both Irish & Scottish.

@annasmith5824 8 лет назад

Why should she sing in English? Her voice is suited perfectly for Gàidhlig songs. If you want to understand what she's singing maybe you should learn Gàidhlig.

@breezeblocks742 8 лет назад

I'm personally glad she keeps up her reputation as a stronghold of the gaelic language in the media

@bmaster461603 8 лет назад

***** It's nice but I like her voice better in English. If that makes any sense.

@breezeblocks742 8 лет назад

bmaster461603 I get what you mean

@geoffreyharris5682 7 лет назад

Galiec, French, Spanish and Italian are much better languages for singing.

@bmaster461603 7 лет назад

That might be true, but I can't understand that unfortunately and her Brave album was dope.

I WANT TO LEARN GAELIC!! my brain tells me that it's a useless language (I live in Australia and have never even met anyone from Scotland) and I should invest the time and energy learning another language ,, but Gaelic is BEAUTIFUL

@RestingScotFace 10 лет назад

But if you taught it to your family it would be the most beautiful way to talk about dinner guests without them realizing it XD

@Lagoona248 10 лет назад

@RestingScotFace 10 лет назад

Then it's a hobby to us that still like the beauty of the language and the history of it's people :) I mean it dosnt have to define it, but my friend in Itay says Italians speak Italian, not Latin; they have lost a certain amount of pride in being Roman bcs that culture died as the language changed and left.

@RestingScotFace 10 лет назад

At the analytic level your exactly right, but to say that is all language is is a very objective way to look at it. Rhetoric is more than just the symbolic words that come out of your mouth. If you don't think speaking Gaelic wont make you lose anything, then by all means don't speak it lol
