Subject: Lyr add: OIDHCHE MHATH LEIBH (John MacFadyen) From: GUEST,Philippa Date: 20 Dec 00 - 06:26 PM OIDHCHE MHATH LEIBH words by John MacFadyen (Mòd 1897) [seisd/chorus] Soraidh leibh is oidhche mhaith leibh Oidhche mhaith leibh, beannachd leibh Guidheam slàinte ghnàth bhith mar riubh. Oidhche mhath leibh, beannachd leibh. Chan 'eil inneal ciùil a ghleusar Dhùisgeas smuain mo chlèibh gu aoibh, Mar nì duan o bheòil nan caileag. Oidhche mhaith leibh, beannachd leibh. 'S guth gu m' chridhe pong nan òran Caidir? solais oigridh 'seinn; Aiteal ciùin air laithean m'oige; Sonas a bhi'n còmhnuidh leibh. Mathair uisge 'n tobair fhioruisg', Cainnt ar sinnsir brigh na loinn; 'S faochadh tlàth o anradh m'intinn Nuair bheir rann na glinn a'm chuimhn'. Grian cha laidh an nochd air miltean. Leis am binn a fuinn 's a roinn. 'S do'm bi'n sgeul 'na mhòr thoil-intinn Dh'innseas dhaibh gu'n robh sinn cruinn.

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Scottish blessing song From: Peg Date: 21 Dec 00 - 10:14 AM thank you Philippa!!! I really appeaciate it. Animaterra; I have a CD with this recorded by MotherTongue (we only did two verses, but the tune is the same for all); it is called "This Winter's Night" and you can get it from various places I think... Also, someone recently recorded a version of with an ever-so-slightly different and I think called the song "The Blessing"; the name escapes me but it may have been Connie Dover...? I wrote it down because it was played on A Celtic Sojourn a couple of times... peg |
