Duil la' Philippa, Thank you for posting an Irish song that, with one or two exceptions, is fairly readable to a Scots Gael. One thing I have always wanted to ask an Irish Gael is why, oh why, do you move the last letter of the first word to the front of the following word ie; Ar Charraig na nDeor (SG, nan Deor)?
