KZread PLEASE for the love of all things sacred, take the ads off the middle and end of this video! Some of us actually use it as a lullaby to get to sleep, and nobody likes being jarred awake by the sudden loud jammin tune of a promo for FB messenger! Thanks! 🙃

KZreadrs PLEASE get an adblock and stop complaining. You are like people who just walk across the street getting hit by cars and complaining "ban cars!" instead of looking around for crossings. Adblockers are those zebra crossings, install them, end of conversation!

Such a beautiful song. We had it played at our mother's funeral. For us the perfect way to say good bye softly and kindly.

Haven't sung this song in decades--not since my boys were wee. A lovely reminder, although I doubt that the full choir would have put them to sleep :)

If you don't love this choir and Irish music you have no soul. This stuff is all perfection.

Listening to this at 12:30am after a very long day of online work. I'm going to fall asleep very quickly and have peaceful dreams tonight. Thank you sweet angels. ❤️

For me, the mark of a great song is its ability to both buoy your spirit with pure crystalline joy and thump you with melancholy so deeply that erratic breaths are a precursor to tears. This is wonderful music.

Amazing everyone here is amazing. The soloist omg her voice filled the whole room every crack and crevice.

What an amazingly beautiful song sung by what sounds like angels here on this earth. * the song came on a portable radio I was channel surfing on while sitting in a storm shelter awaiting severe weather. The song was so beautiful that it put tears in my eyes & gave me a peaceful feeling.

LYRICS Sleep, O babe, for the red bee hums The silent twilight's fall Aoibheall (1) from the Grey Rock comes To wrap the world in thrall. A leanbhan O (2), my child, my joy, My love and heart's desire, The crickets sing you lullaby Beside the dying fire. Dusk is drawn, and the Green Man's Thorn (3) Is wreathed in rings of fog: Siabhra (4) sails his boat till morn Upon the Starry Bog. A leanbhan O, the paly moon Hath brimmed her cusp in dew, And weeps to hear the sad sleep-tune I sing, O love, to you. Faintly sweet doth the chapel bell Ring o'er the valley dim: Tearmann's (5) peasant-voices swell In fragrant evening hymn. A leanbhan O, the low bell rings My little lamb to rest And angel-dreams, till morning sings Its music in your breast. (Chorus) ____________ Notes (1) Aoibheall is the queen of the northern fairies. (2) Leanbhan means "little child". (3) The Green Man - "They say if you see him in the morning, 'no ill follows'; but if at night, death or some other terrible misfortune will surely overtake you." -from "Songs of Uladh" (4) Siabhra - Generic name for any type of Irish fairy. (5) Tearmann is the village of "Termon" near Gartan in Donegal.

This is a brilliant group of vocalists, but Hazel Conway's voice in her solo makes the hairs on my arms and neck stand on end -purity, clarity and strength.

These young people are so extremely talented....as is their director, of course! Their sound is ethereal.

Harp solo for the win! This choir is fantastic!!!

When I was little my mom used to bring me to choir practice. I learned how hard a choir works at rehearsal and how much care is put into a piece like this. This group obviously has worked very hard on their performance and it definitely shows.

Me great granny would softly sing a verse of this (or something quite similar) on rare occasion, tho hardly so beautifully!

Beautiful! What a talented singing group - this and your videos on KZread performing "The Parting Glass" and "Black is the Color of My True Love's Hair" are on my favorites list! It's great that students there are keeping these great old songs alive for the new generation!

I'm absolutely in love with this choir, you all do a fabulous job! Kudos from the US!!

From an American; as a non-person in your art; it, your work, is Heavenly !! From my observation, naive, I heard: you, as, clouds over earth; blown by breeze - between selves; with souls, exchanging conversation with harp; meriting sincere praise !! Bravo !!

On my fifth time listening to this gift from heaven. Thank you for the peace you give.

This makes me feel like I'm in heaven. A momentary escape from the serious world.

Spent a week in choir camp with the soloist. My favorite memory of that time is when 4 of us snuck off to a corner of the ancient church we were rehearsing in. We sang songs to each other from our home nations and she introduced me to The Parting Glass. Pure magic.

¿ Porqué los ojos de las irlandesas, tienen ése encantador color verde, como no he visto otros en ningún lado? ¿Será el reflejo del pasto, o los tréboles de la Isla Esmeralda?
