Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Éiníní / Einini From: GUEST,Irishgirl25 Date: 17 Apr 09 - 11:59 AM The translation into English is this (well, how I learned it anyway): Little birds, little birds, Go to sleep, go to sleep, Little birds, little birds, Go to sleep, go to sleep, Chorus Go to sleep, go to sleep, Beside the wall outside, beside the wall outside, Go to sleep, go to sleep, Beside the wall outside, beside the wall outside Blackbird and raven, Go to sleep, go to sleep, *Blackbird and crow, Go to sleep, go to sleep, Chorus Robin and lark, Go to sleep, go to sleep, Wren and thrush, Go to sleep go to sleep *The word cheir-seach actually means female blackbird, which is why it isn't the same as lon-dubh (blackbird). It is still translated into English as blackbird, though. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Einini: Lyrics to an Irish Lullaby From: Áine Date: 18 Jul 00 - 10:10 AM Dear nanniethegreat, You can find this song (or at least a bit of it) on the soundtrack to the movie "The Secret of Roan Inish", which is still available at amazon.com. If you go to their site (www.amazon.com) and search the popular music section for the word 'inish', you'll find it with no problem. -- Áine |

Subject: Einini and html From: Philippa Date: 25 Aug 99 - 08:02 AM I thought I'd explain the funny text. I forgot my html codes; everytime I typed +, I should have typed a cross-hatch or whatever # is properly called. I kept copying and pasting and repeating the error. Well, I should know better next time. |

Subject: Einini: Lyrics to an Irish Lullaby From: gardenviewafh@yahoo.com Date: 19 Aug 99 - 02:07 AM My daughter wants to learn the lyrics to the Irish lullaby, Einini (William Coulter does a wonderful instrumental version on Narada's Celtic Legacy CD). Does anyone happen to have them written down somewhere? English and/or Gaelic lyrics would be ok. Thank you!!! |
