Subject: Lyr Req: Looking for a poem in Irish
I'm racking my brains for a poem (or song) in Irish that I remember, or rather don''t, from school. I thought it was Cill Cais, but it doesn't seem to be.
Whatever it was, it was, like Cill Cais, a lament for a lost lady. But what I remember was that the poet wrote about how the lady is no longer there to call her white doves, and the dovecote is empty. Anyone?
