Well I dunno what else to say bout it. Brilliant song. Makes me cry to sing it.

Here is the poem I wrote

M'ANAMCHARA

M'anamchara, my girl, my daughter
Caught up lost and lonely souls
Loved and led us with your laughter
Bound us together with your calls

Come to me
Come to me
Come let me show you
Follow me
Follow me
I want to know you

M'anamchara, singing your hymns
Not a one to be left undone
All the lost ones, how you sought them
When wove us into your song

Here I am
Here I am
Come now and find me
Find me now
Find me now
Can you know me

M'anamchara, we gathered round you
All around that farewell day
Though we were found, we had lost you
And could not follow you away

Where are you
Where are you
Why did you leave
I am here
I am here
Do not grieve me

M'anamchara, those you befriended
Told the strength that you had shared
Sorrow for one moment suspended
Then we sang your soul away

M'anamchara, how you cared
I'll be there
I've not forsaken
I love you
Love you all
And I cannot be taken


A song for my daughter Andrea Louise Robbins - about Andie and her funeral service. How her legacy survives through the lives she touched.

Inspired by Sleepy Rosie through this thread and some PMs.
