It's sad that Scots Gaelic is barely spoken at all now, it's actually quite pretty when sung
A lot of us still speak it getting stronger now than when I was in school, and we would get it beaten out of us. Had many a whacking from a wet tawse
Go find those teachers in their retirement and return the favor.
Alison does have a lovely voice.
The first few verses are:
I climb the mountain and scan the ocean for thee, my boatman, with fond devotion When shall I see thee? Today? Tomorrow? Oh! don't leave me in lonely sorrow.
chorus: O, my boatman, na hóró éile, (3x) May joy await thee wherever thou sailest.
Broken-hearted, I droop and languish, and frequent tears show mg bosom's anguish; Shall I expect thee tonight to cheer me? or close the door, sighing, sad and weary.
From passing boatmen, I'd fain discover if they have heard of or seen my lover; They never tell me - I'm only chided and told my heart has been sorely misguided
