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. |
