Having got most of the other lyrics for the " Seven steps to mercy " cd, I was wondering if anyone knew of the gaelic lyrics to seacht? It is a nice song and would be good to have the lyrics, but i find it difficult to hear on the album. Slan agaibh, Ruairi |

Eimear at the Cultúrlann in Belfast would know how to contact him, if you want to pass your enquiry on to her. |

19 Mar 04 - 02:18 AM (#1140626) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Seven (Seacht) Iarla o'lionaird From: Fiona Hi guest, afrocelts.com isn't working at the moment, they're updating the site and it seems to be taking much longer than they hoped to get it back up again. Their new remix album is out in May and we've been told the new site will be up then. We've also been promised translations of the lyrics, fingers crossed. In the meantime, http://www.afrocelts.org/, is working and thats the place where you'll find Simons article. If you post your question in the forum, there's a chance he may answer. BTW Iarla singing 'Aililiu Na Gamhna' from the 'Seven Steps to Mercy' has been a feature of the last few Afrocelts shows. Achingly beautiful. |

I suppose now you are back in Ireland and finding things out for yourself. The Belfast weekend is only once a year, this year will be 7-9 May. An Cultúrlann also has a Sunday singing circle once or twice a month. Sean-nós cois Life is held in Dublin annually; the 2004 event was last weekend. Not too far from Dublin is An Béal Binn in Bray, Co. Wicklow, with singing classes 8-9 pm, singing session afterwards, Thursday nights at the sailing club opposite the Harbour Bar. (p-mail "Felipa" for phone no and e-mail; I've never been to an Béal Binn, but I have the info) |
