24 Aug 01 - 09:37 AM (#534440) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: I need help with an Irish song From: ard mhacha Guest Rose, I have Mary O`Hara singing Fil A Run O,I would send it to you, but as you are a Guest there is no way I can get in touch. And I will include a tape full of Gaelic [Irish] songs. Do you know that the song is about a mothers plea for her son to return to the Catholic faith.It is one of the many songs from County Donegal,I would say that Donegal has more songs to its name than any County in Ireland.Slan Ard Mhacha. |

24 Aug 01 - 05:28 PM (#534745) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: I need help with an Irish song From: hiudai Ard Mhacha is quite right about the Irish song 'Fill, fILL A run O, (Fill a roon O). Its about a young man who was ordained a priest and went away and became a Protestant Minister. The song has a beautiful air to it and has been recorded on CDs by many Irish artists. The song is supposed to be based on fact, a very popular Donegal song. Hiudai. |

Fill orm a chuisle is a stór, Agus chífidh tú an glóir má fhillean tú. Shiúil mise thall is abhus; I Mhóta Ghráinne Óige a rugadh mé, Is ní fhaca mé iontas go fóill Mar an Sagart Ó Dónaill ina mhinistir. Fill, fill a rún ó, Fill, a rún is ná himigh uaim. Má fhilleann tú inniu nó go deo, Fill insan Ord in ar oileadh tú. Dhiúltaigh tú Peadar is Pól, Mar gheall ar an ór is an airgead. Dhiúltaigh tú Banríon na Glóire, Agus d'iompaigh tú i gcóta an mhinistir. I can add a translation later. Thanks for the background on the song, Ard. I'd love to hear any comments on it. It appears that her son not only "left the Faith", but became a minister. I'd also like to know if there is any information on how to compose music in ABC format. Brían. |

24 Feb 09 - 06:56 PM (#2575153) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: I need help with an Irish song From: GUEST So many years later - who knows if any of you will read this thread again. Still, the song is 270 years old, composed in 1739 and preserved in the books Cas Abhrain and Abair Abhrain |

24 Feb 09 - 08:13 PM (#2575198) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: I need help with an Irish song From: Bonnie Shaljean Antoinette McKenna (who is Mary Bergin's sister) makes a lovely job of Fill, fill a rún ó, with voice and harp. It's on The Best Of Joe & Antoinette McKenna which you can take a look at (among other places) on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Best-Joe-Antoinette-McKenna/dp/B000000E5Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1235523361&sr=1-1 If you're going to buy it, remember to click on the blue catfish-jumping-out-of-a-banjo logo at the top of the main page, then scroll down and click the US or UK Amazon link, and help support Mudcat. (Canadian & French ones take you to the US site but you can get there by then going to the bottom of their page and clicking the relevant country, which I think still gets Mudcat their cut.) Joe & Antoinette are great, both musically and as people. This is a lovely album, full of terrific material. |

Once on the Anonyma album "Burnt Feathers" and I think she's come back to it on her "Celtic Requiem" album. We used to put it together with a song of mine called "Cathy loves a Priest" when we were touring as Anonyma. Anne |
