Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Mo Ghile Mear (phonetic Irish)
se mo laoch is possibly one of the most evocative and haunting songs as gailge ever written .My advise to anyone wishing to really experience an amhran seo properly would be to repair to Cul aodh in the Muscrai Gaeltacht of West Cork and maybe listen to Chor Cul aodh under the expert tutelage of Peadar o Riada ,son of Sean ,give the definite version. ALso while there attend Sunday mass and experience the magical O Riada mass as it was meant to be heard. Head out the western road from Cork city to Bhaile Bhuirne turn left over the bridge opposite An Mhuillean and discover that the pre Celtic Tiger Ireland still exists !!
