Tsukasa - my Irish is possibly more impoverished than yours despite 12 years of it back in school - but it's something to do with Mary Kenny just after having swum the Erne (short river coming out of the beautiful lake in Fermanagh into the sea in Sligo/ poss. Leitrim). btw Matchmakers and e-flirters - is this the same mermaid song as the one included on the 'Amhráin ar an Sean Nós' CD from Gael Linn? Must check it tonight when I get home...
