An Toll Dubh
An interesting and stirring contemporary Gaidhlig song. Check out the video. Amazing imagery.
The chorus is meaningful. Le čiginn ar n-čirigh ąs ar suain Le čiginn ar n-čirigh ąs ar suain An Gaidheal 'sa leabaidh An Gaidheal 'na shuain Le čiginn ar n-čirigh ąs ar suain" -oOo- It is with difficulty that we will rise from our slumber It is with difficulty that we will rise from our slumber The Gael has gone to bed The Gael is asleep It is with difficulty that we will rise from our slumber

Will the Children of the Gael sleep forever?

Yet still the blood is strong, the heart is Highland, And we, in dreams, behold the Hebrides. - The Canadian Boat Song.
