    The Braes o' Balquhidder
    By Robert Tannahill, of Paisley Scotland June 3, 1774 - May 17, 1810
    over 100 years before supposedly written in Ireland...that said well done on a great version and lesson :-)
    LYRICS:
    Let us go, lassie, go
    Tae the braes o' Balquhidder
    Whar the blueberries grow
    'Mang the bonnie Hielan' heather
    Whar the deer and the rae
    Lichtly bounding thegither
    Sport the lang summer day
    On the braes o' Balquhidder
    I will twin thee a bow'r
    By the clear silver fountain
    And I'll cover it o'er
    Wi' the flooers o' the mountain
    I will range through the wilds
    And the deep glens sae dreary
    And return wi' their spoils
    Tae the bow'r o' my dearie
    When the rude wintry win'
    Idly raves roun' oor dwellin'
    And the roar o' the linn
    On the nicht breeze is swellin'
    So merrily we'll sing
    As the storm rattles o'er us
    Till the dear shielin' ring
    Wi' the licht liltin' chorus
    Noo the summers in prime
    Wi' the flooers richly bloomin'
    Wi' the wild mountain thyme
    A' the moorlan's perfumin'
    Tae oor dear native scenes
    Let us journey thegither
    Whar glad innocence reigns
    'Mang the braes o' Balquhidder

      well unravel these lyrics, laddie!
      Keen blaws the win' o'er the braes o' Glennifer The auld castle's turrets are covered wi' snaw How changed frae the time when I met wi' my lover Amang the brume bushes by Stanley green shaw The wild flowers o' simmer were spread a' sae bonnie The Mavis sang sweet frae the green birkin tree But far to the camp they ha'e marched my dear Johnnie Like Robert Burns, Tannahill collected and adapted traditional songs, and "The Braes Of Balquhither" may have been based on the traditional song "The Braes O' Bowhether".

    Wow, you are amazing, your voice does this song justice. We traveled to Ireland in 2016 and haven't been the same since we returned. We fell in love with the beautiful unspoiled land, the villages, the music, and most of all the people. They were so incredibly kind and loved to stop us just to talk. I'm a beginner guitarist, and I haven't gotten through the whole video but we're not on the Capo yet. What are the other chords without a capo. Thank you

    O the summer time has come
    And the trees are sweetly bloomin'
    And the wild mountain thyme
    Grows around the bloomin' heather
    Will ye go
    Lassie
    Go?
    Chorus:
    And we'll all go together
    To pull wild mountain thyme
    All around the bloomin' heather
    Will ye go
    Lassie
    Go?
    I will build my love a bower (summerhouse)
    By yon cool crystal fountain
    And round it I will pile
    All the wild flowers o' the mountain
    Will ye go
    Lassie
    Go?
    (chorus)
    I will range through the wilds
    And the deep glen sae dreamy
    And return wi' their spoils
    Tae the bower o' my dearie
    Will ye go
    Lassie
    Go?
    (chorus)
    If my true love she'll not come
    Then I'll surely find another
    To pull wild mountain thyme
    All around the bloomin' heather
    Will ye go
    Lassie
    Go?

    The song comes from the custom of young Scottish women picking and wearing Thyme to signify they are “ready” to start “courting”. The young men would present the girls with wild flowers in order to indicate that they wanted to go out with them. The author of the song was clearly impatient for the girl to pick wild mountain thyme and was greatly wishing to show his affection to her by “building a bower of flowers” not just a bunch. A beautiful Scottish custom.

    Hi John,
    Really enjoyed the video. I have been trying to learn the guitar for about 5 years and I have a reasonable command of the instrument but I can't play in front of anyone, I don't have any confidence. I am an Irish man living in Spain and I would love to conquer this fear. Would you have any suggestions.
    Kind regards.
    Greg.

    • @onlineacademyofirishmusic
      @onlineacademyofirishmusic  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi Greg, Do you have any other people close by to play / learn music with? Perhaps a 1 - 1 teacher would help. You could learn some Spanish guitar pieces and slowly build for there. Play with tutor > play with friends > play in public. There is a great pdf to download here on this topic and also a course I think - playinthezone.com/ Let us know if that helps and don’t hesitate to get in touch with any other questions.

    The words to "Wild Mountain Time" or "Will Ye Go Lassie, Go". were written in the 1950s by Francis McPeak of Belfast. He based the tune on the"The Braes of Balquhither" by Robert Tannehill, the Scottish poet who wrote his song in the late 1700s. The melody is not the same, but very similar. Wild Mountain Time is an Irish song. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_Mountain_Thyme

    Most of the chord versions online go to the Dm for the 'blooming heather bit, but yours doesn't for some reason? I am a bit confised as to what you do there do you just stay on the F? Thanks in advance for your help!

    • @52Paddy1991
      @52Paddy1991 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      freddiemercerful Hi freddiemercerful. Both of these chords are an option depending on what you prefer the sound of. The reason why both work is because Dm is what's known as the "relative minor" chord of F major. It basically refers to the fact that the scales of F major and D minor have the same amount of flats (in this case, one - Bb).

    • @freddiemercerful
      @freddiemercerful 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Patrick Cummins
      Hi Patrick, I see and I didn't realise that, to be honest my music theory is pretty poor but thanks a lot for telling me that! So am I right in saying that the relative minor is always three semitones below the major chord? For example is the relative minor of C Am and of G Em? I know C/Am is quite a common combo including of course for this song which would explain a lot! Thanks for your reply and for the great videos btw!

    • @52Paddy1991
      @52Paddy1991 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      freddiemercerful You are absolutely right - there are three semitone steps between the major and relative minor. This interval is called a "minor 3rd" or, inverted, is known as a "major 6th". And thanks for the kind words, I hope you are enjoying OAIM.

      If you have no capo. Get a pencil and a hair band or two. Put the pencil on the strings and stretch the hairband over the top and bottom of the pencil. May need to be twisted.

      It's morphed over the centuries. lol...fr. Wikipaedia...."Wild Mountain Thyme" (also known as "Purple Heather" and "Will Ye Go, Lassie, Go?") is an Irish/Scottish folk song. The lyrics and melody are a variant of the song "The Braes of Balquhither" by Scottish poet Robert Tannahill (1774-1810) and Scottish composer Robert Archibald Smith (1780-1829), but were adapted by Belfast musician Francis McPeake (1885-1971) into "Wild Mountain Thyme" and first recorded by his family in the 1950s.[1]
      Tannahill's original song, first published in Robert Archibald Smith's Scottish Minstrel (1821-24), is about the hills (braes) around Balquhidder near Lochearnhead. Like Robert Burns, Tannahill collected and adapted traditional songs, and "The Braes of Balquhither" may have been based on the traditional song "The Braes o' Bowhether".

      No you are wrong. The song was written by Francis McPeak. An Irish man, living in Scotland at the time. There has been a huge court case brought by The Mcpeak Family proving this and to dispel much of the rubbish which has developed over the years!

      Mmh interesting indeed. Ive never heard that before especially as the words get credited to Robbie Burns. Scotlands national bard and the dialect of the song is border Scots. Im not disagreeing with u but find it very interesting that their is a law suit as well. Wow indeed. Cheers jd

      Sorry buddy, but you are wrong. Well, partially. Yes, it was an Irishman who partly wrote it. The other part was Robbie Burns, but it was written in Scotland, so it must therefore be Scottish. In my book anyhow.
