GUEST,Okiemockbird Ancient Celtic Tunes (21) RE: Ancient Celtic Tunes 15 May 00


The Irish words now often translated "Be thou my vision" are old. (So, for that matter, are the Irish and Latin words to many other hymns, such as "Atomriug indiu " = "I arise today", also known as "St. Patrick's Lorica".) But the melody (Brennus is seeking tunes) is much more recent. My guess would be, 18th-19th century.
