Hello, I am searching for a song called 'Na hisleain Thiar' or 'Seoladh chuig na hisleain Thiar'. There is a fragment of it sung on a TH-cam video as part of a tribute to Francie Mooney of Gweedore; 'Na hÍsleáin Thiar' - Oíche do Francie, Gaoth Dobhair'. I can't find any information about this song. I would like to by a recording and/or sheet music of so that I can learn it. No one I have asked has any idea about this tune. Can you help me?

Im irish myself and was looking into the lyrics and meaning of some old songs i knew as a child, this channel and this lady are absolutely amazing, much love
@@onlineacademyofirishmusic Shared the site and the lessons with friends and family this morning. Went through 4 lessons yesterday but will keep replaying them until I can actually pronounce everything correctly. She is an excellent teacher! Articulate and a skilled and magnificent singer. Explanations are very good too. The embellishments could be a whole separate course though! It is a pursuit for the rest of my life! thank you!
How I love the sound of Gaelic, and what a beautiful Voice, it made me cry, thank you for such a lovely Video, I wish I could write this Comment in the Gaelic.
Online Academy of Irish Music No, oh that I could, I first fell in love with Muireann's beautiful Voice when she sang with Danú. She sang Farewell, Farewell, and I chose this wonderfully sad Song when I said my final Goodbye to my dear Father. I cannot find the Words to thank you enough. Keep Safe.
I'm Polish, 45 years old, and I've been starting several times already to learn some Irish :-). And this here is a new, very pleasant approach! Go raibh maith agat, Mrs. Nic Amhlaiobh! Understanding Gaelic songs is (from my point of view) a really hard work, even if one is familiar with some basics of Gaelic grammar. Probably impossible without a native speaker's help! But singing them (whether one understands or not...) - it's marvellous!:-)
There's more Polish speakers in Ireland on a daily basis than Irish. So, thank you for having an interest in the Irish language too. The very best of luck my friend..
@@kingofcelts I hope, my Polish compatriots behave sufficiently well!.. There is my cousin's son among them. As for the Irish language, it has always the scent/flair of an ancient secret world.. :-) Generally, we have much sympathy towards the Irish people.Have a look at the "ferocious battle" between Irish and Polish football fans: th-cam.com/video/6L99bwVUfik/w-d-xo.html :-)
My Celtic blood line could fit on the face of an asperin tablet. so this is going to be tough to learn. The absolute most captivating & romantic language in the world.
Genetics plays no part in aquiring a language. Its comes easier for some that are gifted with a good ear and memory but it takes time and patience. Languages are there for all to learn .
This is so good, long in the distance past I have Scottish and Irish heritage and have been planning within the next year to do an Irish music folk album with my kids. I was hoping we could do 2 or 3 songs in Gaelic, this is such a good introduction. Amazing.
@@onlineacademyofirishmusic yes we became member of site fantastic resources, time to improve on all the Irish folk instruments I have lying around the house
Hi John, there are many guitar lessons on the www.oaim.ie website as well as slowed down play along practice tracks which are perfect for guitar learners. Check it out.
Just starting to learn Irish Gaelic. Thank you for making this video, especially how to pronounce and blend vowels/consonants properly for singing. Agree that it's better to learn Gaelic in the context of song! :-)
Hi Noel, You can get the mp3 of Muireann singing the whole song on the www.oaim.ie for free. Just create a free account and go to the song page where you'll see the free singing lessons. Let me know if that works.
Online Academy of Irish Music . Hi, nice you replicado. Thanks. To learn it I have to persist. I also watched another UTuber teaching the phonetics of Irish accent. Another UTuber teaches the vocabulary and grammar (the spelling?! Wow!) of Irish Gaelic, but again, one must persist. I used to work with friends from Ireland (Londonderry area?) . Oops! , they told me some time ago not say "Londonderry" , just Derry ...... Best wishes, and great video. God bless you....

Keening comes from the Irish word for cry, which is 'caoin'. The Irish word was anglicised into the word keen or keening. Keening is a lament sounded by women at funerals in times past in Ireland

Yes...ok but put the words on the screen cos the spellings are are all to fuck...I have an idea of the pronunciations of the words when I see them but the SOUNDS are very much counterintuitive...

YOUNG LADY, you are a perfict example of the kindness and hospitality that make the Irish a truly special people. I love how you are.
Thanks !
I could watch her for hours and hours, glued to her beautiful face and voice.
There are women who are more physically beautiful, but her expressions are so sweet and cute that she's a joy to watch.
I’m Irish and I feel like learning would help me get closer to my heritage
Are you learning the song then?

Really beautiful Irish Gaelic singing and I don't know how anyone could possibly give this a thumbs down?

It seems being stupid and racist is synonymous.

I cant.. The little slurs, how?? They seem impossible. No matter what I do I cant do them.
Can anybody tell me what is “keeling”?
I heard it mentioned in regards to Dolores O’Riordan. They said she incorporated keeling into pop music.
P. S. You have a beautiful voice!
I think the word you are looking for is ''Keening'' which refers to lamentation -usually for the dead--.This is not Keening..
Keening comes from the Irish word for cry, which is 'caoin'. The Irish word was anglicised into the word keen or keening. Keening is a lament sounded by women at funerals in times past in Ireland
This is Sean Nos, right?
Hi Sameer, That's right this is 'sean-nós'. Have you been learning this song? Are there any sessions nearby to your home?
No. This seemed too similar to Iarla O' Lionaird's style.
Muireann grew up and learned to sing in Dingle Co. Kerry. Her teachers were from the Blasket Islands. Enjoy the music !
It is! this lady would know her stuff.
Where is the lesson? Where are te words to this?
Hi Bobby, You can find the lyrics and mp3 of the song as well as the full OAIM lesson experience on the website www.oaim.ie. Simply create a free starter account and head to the gaelic song page :)
