    An arrangement of 'She Moved Through the Fair' for solo cello.
    An ancient Irish melody from Donegal. Haunting and beautiful love song.
    Wedding music, cello wedding music from Ireland.
    Original arrangement by Patrick Dexter.

    Traditional music from inside my cottage. An ancient melody believed to originate from the far north west of Ireland, county Donegal. The song tells a story of love. The last verse always makes me tearful 😢
    She Moved Through the Fair
    My love said to me My Mother won't mind And me Father won't slight you For your lack of kind Then she stepped away from me And this she did say It will not be long love 'Til our wedding day.
    She stepped away from me And she moved through the Fair And fondly I watched her Move here and move there And she went her way homeward With one star awake As the swans in the evening Move over the lake
    The people were saying No two e'er were wed But one has a sorrow That never was said And she smiled as she passed me With her goods and her gear And that was the last That I saw of my dear.
    I dreamed it last night That my true love came in So softly she entered Her feet made no din She came close beside me And this she did say It will not be long love Till our wedding day.

    Holding our newborn 3 1/2 hour Grandson as we listen together.
    So peaceful. Mommy is resting and Grandma is reading to the Grandchildren.

    Love this. We had this played on uillean pipes at my mother's funeral, it brings back so many happy memories of my lovely mother.

    Wonderful, I'm glad I have discovered you thanks to a twitter-friend. My only regret is that irish people do not wear the kilt. Love from Paris-France.
