Click on "Search the GRD" and enter Calum Sgaire or Oran Chaluim Sgaire in the title box. It's also on one of Mairi Mc.Innes's CD's, either This Feeling Inside or Orosay, and the words are in the sleeve notes. I think it's also in Anne Lorne-Gillies's Songs of Gaelic Scotland and one of the Ceo\l nam Feis books. |

It's sung by Mairi MacInnes on the CD Ar Ca\nan 's ar Ceo\l by Gaelic Women, CDTRAX172. This version is more or less the same as in Ceo\l nam Fe\is 2 and in Malcolm's links. The GRD has more verses and Anne Lorne-Gillies more still. It certainly is a lovely song. I'll have to learn it myself when I've decided which verses to include and which to leave out. The name of the village is Bo\stadh (there is a typo in the links). |
