about

The song was written in the 19th century as part of the Gaelic Revival Movement, which championed Irish language and culture. The lyrics describe the beauty of the currach; a small traditional fishing boat usually found off the west coast of Ireland.

lyrics

Crochfaidh mé seólta agus rachaidh mé siar
Óró mo churaichín ó
‘S go hoíche Fhéile Eoin ní thicofaidh mé aniar
Óró mo bháidín

Óró mo churaichín ó
Óró mo bháidín
Óró mo churaichín ó
Óró mo bháidín

S nach breá í mo bháidín a’ snámh ar an gcuan
Óró mo churaichín ó
‘S na maidí á dtarraingt go láidir ‘s go buan
Óró mo bháidín

Óró mo churaichín ó
Óró mo bháidín
Óró mo churaichín ó
Óró mo bháidín

S nach éachtach a’ léimneach thar thonnta árd’
Óró mo churaichín ó
‘S nach eadtrom í iompar aníos thar an trá
Óró mo bháidín

Óró mo churaichín ó
Óró mo bháidín
Óró mo churaichín ó
Óró mo bháidín

Óró mo churaichín ó
Óró mo bháidín
Óró mo churaichín ó
Óró mo bháidín

about

Liv Monaghan Paris, France

independent Irish vocalist and songwriter based in Paris.

My music pulls threads from Jazz, Soul, Folk, and Romanticism to create an alternative, sometimes experimental, often poetic and always original sound.

Lover of the left-behind, of old things of letter-notes and half-light ghosts which get stitched, strung or typed back up together to make something new.
