It's Saint Paddy's Day once again and for me it's always a time to pour a pint of holy water and reflect on our blessings as we watch the world crumble from compulsive lies. They say the Brits have grit and the Irish have heart yet the Irish have endured many hardships so they have.
Irish music is both happy and sorrowful. When we think of Irish music a few songs come to mind. The Town I loved so well about Derry. A Nation Once again and of course Erin go bragh Tiocfaidh ár lá. Am I allowed to say that?
Erin go bragh means Ireland Forever while Tiocfaidh ár lá means our day will come. A hopeful shout with faith in better days ahead.The Merry Ploughboy states I have always hated slavery since the day that I was born as have I. Then there's the Rhythm of Time by Bobby Sands.
There are never ending playlists of Irish music featuring the Irish drum called the bodhrán, the tin whistle and the fiddle.
