This is an incredible Version of An Ancient Irish Poem and Song, Made Famous By Luke Kelly after Meeting With Patrick Kavanagh, Who Reckoned Luke had The Best Voice To Sing it and My oh My was Kavanagh Correct. The Beautiful Voices and Harmonies of the Singers made The Hair Stand on The Back of My Neck and The Perfectly Placed Raglin Road makes The Composition a Work of Modern Art and Music and So Special To See it Sung By So Many Young Talented Irish Singers Carrying On Our Music, Culture and Traditions. The Dawning Of The Day is The Theme Song Or Anthem Of The Famous and Longest Serving Unit in Our Defence Forces, The 3 Infantry Battalion, (The Bloods, Whose Motto is D'ilis G'o Bra'ith - "Loyalty Forever") Ireland's Primary Combat Unit, I Proudly Served With This Unit and 2 Other Battalions For 37 Years, But This Song is Very Special, The First Time that I heard This Version, It was awesome, Struck me right in My Heart and to My Core and instantly after it was over I said to myself That Version is incredible and I want it Sang at My Funeral. Well done to All of You For Carrying Forward Our Beautiful Heritage, Music and Culture and For Having Such an Interest in It To Produce This Masterpiece. Thank You All So Much, I Love This Version and Listen to it Regularly. G'o Hu'intach Ar F'ad.
OK, Fáinne Geal An Lae ( The Dawning of the Day ) and Raglan Road are two different songs/poems just sung to the same tune. Fáinne Geal An Lae was composed in the 17th century by Thomas Connellan. It was translated as The Dawning of the Day in the mid 19th century. On Raglan Road was a poem composed by Patrick Kavanagh in the mid 20th century. It is said that Kavanagh had the original tune in mind when composing his poem.
I have witnessed many great renditions of this song. None better than this and so uplifting to see the age of the participants. There is hope for the world friends :)

"In you our fathers put their trust; they trusted and you delivered them. They cried to you and were saved; in you they trusted and were not disappointed... Do not be far from me, for trouble is near and there is no one to help." -Psalm 22:22:4-5, 11 "Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me... I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord." -Psalm 27:10, 13-14
Yes I think of our country men and women around the world when I hear there's kids singing all there's wonderful songs in Irish especially grace and raglin Road is the pinnacle for me and I often laugh out loud when I am telling tourists that when irish people emigrate the almost all become more Irish than they ever were here they suddenly become very interested in the GAA they start singing traditional songs yes some of them do that before the go but it's odd but welcome that our culture is found not matter how they find it so there kids must be a wonderful tonic to our people around the world I say to the tourist I meet well sadly not since the start of the pandemic when I showed them these videos please pass them on Best wishes to you from Dublin please pass these songs on thank you 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
I love that this channel often prints the lyrics in the description of the video so people can read along. I would love to see the lyrics for this one.
Layla OBrien, actually, they were right. The full name of the language is Irish Gaelic. There are three types of Gaelic, the other two being Scottish and Manx. The reason it is called Irish nowadays is because we want people to feel like they should learn it and it is not so foreign. Since in English we call the country Ireland, we figure that calling the language Irish will help people associate themselves with it more. The word "Gaelic" comes from "Gaeilge" which is what the native word for the language is. So Irish=Irish Gaelic. Saying just Gaelic could imply any of the three, this is why we specify. Chomh maith, tá an t-amhrán seo go han-álainn. Maith sibh!
Éire, I see this is a late reply...I’ve been trying to learn Irish ( Irish in English, Gaeilge in the Irish language) for nearly a year. It’s quite a challenge; fascinating and frustrating yet rewarding. Learning a language at my age (well over 50) is not as hard as I thought it would be.

Absolutely stunning. I would be happy to like this but alas I cannot bring myself to do it. That would require hitting the thumbs up to unlike it first. I would spend the rest of the year unliking this just so I can like it more. Mind you, I could have some wonderful sounds to listen to. I love what you are doing with the language. It's future is with the future, ... the young folk. You are wisely getting them to hold it and nurture it. The best way to make the language viable is to make it relevant, then it gets used, then it just is! Heart felt thanks from the nearest land mass on the opposite side of the globe. I am mostly of Celtic descent and just love listening to your fantastic work.
Technically Raglan Road is a different song, it uses the melody from Dawning of the Day, but was written in 1946 while Fáinne Geal an Lae dates back to the 17th century.
Beautiful and and I made the mistake of looking up the lyrics to the song. I liked it better when it seemed like I was sitting in Church listening to the choir sing. Great Job and Thank you A fan from Chicago
It would be more accurate to state that Raglan Road- composed in the forties- has the same melody as Fáinne Gheal on Lae ( Dawning of the Day), written early in the nineteenth century.
Chas mé an t-amhrán seo ag bainis mo neach sa bPortaingéil. Lá álainn amuigh cois farraige agus an Ghaeilge bhinn ag milsiú an aeir te teolaí. An-ealaíon agaibh arís Lucht Lurgain!
Haigh Catey, tá an t-amhrán seo mar chuid den tsraith chláracha Lurgan2K17 a bheas á chraoladh ar TG4 níos deireanaí sa mbliain. Bhí an oíche sin thar cionn ar fad. Beidh sé ag dul ar TG Lurgan théis a bheith craolta ar TG4, is fiú go mór fanacht air.

Fáinne Gael an Lae (The Dawning if the Day):
Maidin Moch Do Ghabhas Amach
Ar Bhruach Locha Léin
An Samhradh 'Teacht 'S An Chraobh Len' Ais
Is Ionrach Te Ón Ngréin
Ar Thaisteal Dom Trí Bhailte Poirt
Is Bánta Míne Réidhe
Cé A Gheobhainn Le M'ais Ach An Chúileann Deas
Le Fáinne Geal An Lae
Ní Raibh Bróg Ná Stoca Caidhp Ná Clóc
Ar Mo Stóirín Óg Ón Speir
Ach Folt Fionn Órga Síos Go Troigh
Ag Fás Go Barr An Fhéir
Bhí Calán Crúite Aici Ina Glaic
'S Ar Dhrúcht Ba Dheas A Scéimh
Do Rug Barr Gean Ar Bhéineas Deas
Le Fáinne Geal An Lae
Do Shuigh An Bhrídoeg Síos Le M'ais
Ar Bhinse Glas Den Fhéar
Ag Magadh Léi Bhíos Dá Maíomh Go Pras
Mar Mhnaoi Nach Scarfainn Léi
'S É Dúirt Sí Liomsa "Imigh Uaim
Is Scaoil Ar Siúl Mé A Réic"
Sin Iad Aneas Na Soilse Ag Teacht
Le Fáinne Geal An Lae. ☘️🎻Proud to be Irish🎼🇮🇪
Thank you.
Go raibh mile maith agat, a chara!
Cá bhfuil na focail? Where are the lyrics?
Tá sé seo go hálainn :)
This is the original The dawning of the day. Raglan road is an imitation if I can use that word
An-mhaith
Nicely done. The guitarist(!) lets in down.
What language is this song in?
Irish
Iontach.
An mbeidh sibh ag canadh amhrán iontach eile, Amhrán Dóchais, sa todhchaí?
Class, can you buy this
😍 do you know a good school where I can learn this wonderful language ?
I'm learning on Duolingo. It's free.
In Bruges
Dochreite maith sibhse!
My FAVORITE VERSION of this song! Still like Van The Man's version too:)
Iontach !
Go hálainn!
😊
Absolutely stunning. I would be happy to like this but alas I cannot bring myself to do it. That would require hitting the thumbs up to unlike it first. I would spend the rest of the year unliking this just so I can like it more. Mind you, I could have some wonderful sounds to listen to.
I love what you are doing with the language. It's future is with the future, ... the young folk. You are wisely getting them to hold it and nurture it. The best way to make the language viable is to make it relevant, then it gets used, then it just is!
Heart felt thanks from the nearest land mass on the opposite side of the globe. I am mostly of Celtic descent and just love listening to your fantastic work.
I'm from ireland and in english dawing of day sounds so different
Technically Raglan Road is a different song, it uses the melody from Dawning of the Day, but was written in 1946 while Fáinne Geal an Lae dates back to the 17th century.
Tá uaigneas orm.
Beautiful and and I made the mistake of looking up the lyrics to the song. I liked it better when it seemed like I was sitting in Church listening to the choir sing. Great Job and Thank you A fan from Chicago
Jim Corbeil -The lyrics are beautiful. More meaningful than you seem to understand.
A beautiful Gaelic song with the same melody as Raglan road. It would be nice to know more about the connections of the two.
It would be more accurate to state that Raglan Road- composed in the forties- has the same melody as Fáinne Gheal on Lae ( Dawning of the Day), written early in the nineteenth century.
