Éamonn an Chnoic - Ukulele

A traditional Irish tune attributed to Edmond O'Ryan, a sort of celtic
Robin Hood. Apologies in advance for any mispronunciations - I did try
my best to get it right. Below is a translation of what's being sung in Gaelic:
"Who is that outside
That has fever in his voice
Smashing at my locked door?
I am Eamon of the Hill
That is drowned wet and cold
From forever-walking mountains and glens.
My tragic fair one, and my chosen one,
What should I do with you
But to put you safe under my skirts?
And that powder would blow back thickly on you,
And we will be extinguished as one.
I am far outside under snow and under ice
And without boldness or any spirit.
My ploughland without a mark, my grassland without seed,
And these not in my ownership in any case.
I have no friend, and this is a regret to me
That I called early and late
And that I must go overseas west
Where I have no ties.
A bit of the Gaelic Transcription:
Cé hé sin amugh a bhfuil faobhar ar a ghuth
Ag réabadh mo dhorais dhúnta?
Mise Éamonn an chnoic atá báiste fuair fliuch
Ó shiorshiúl sléibhte is gleannta
A léir-ghil is a chuid
Cad a dhéanaimse dhuit
Mura gcuirfinn ort binn de mo ghúna?
Is go bfhuil púdar go tiubh á shiorshéadeadh leat
Is go mbeimis araon múchta...

Wonderful. Wow.

Loved this! Perfect for the ukulele too

This video is a masterpiece! Your accompaniment is exquisite: I had no idea so much could be done with a uke. What's more, your vocal treatment of this fine song stands handsomely alongside those of "The Greats," e.g. Liam Clancy's, Connie Dover's, and that of the Wolfe Tones. My eyes are awash in tears.

Wow, dude, that's really great! I love to sing Irish songs, too! And to study Irish Gaelic! And I, too, often use a Blue Snowball microphone! *lol* Éamonn an Chnoic

Thanks! For this I used Reason 6.5 and the Balance interface. Still learning how all that stuff works...

[@EricStetson]

Quite a high compliment, thank you very, very much. I'll keep working on my Gaelic pronunciation and maybe I can do justice to another tune like this.

Incredible. What recording software do you use?
