Thread Name: Lyr ADD: Is Mise Raifteiri / I'm Raftery the Poet
Subject: RE: Is mise raifteiri - file lyrics by elea
Thank you so much Joe. I love the background to Raifteiri's life. And the poem is truly delightful. I wonder if it has had an air put to it?
But yes, it was Eleanor 'Shanley's song I was referring to, hoping to learn it. I've listened to several performances but still can't make out the second line of the third verse. (Before ' I've been on my travels, I 've made up some more')
Maybe fresh ears are needed!
If you can decipher them and put me out of my misery I'd be mighty chuffed.
