Download or read book Irish Mist Sunshine written by James B. Dollard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irish Mist Sunshine: A Book of Ballads Dollard moreover possesses the quality which alone is wanting among the perfections of the New Curate namely, a wholehearted sym pathy with the national yearning of his peo ple. The simple explanation to me at least of the dismal fate of all the more or less Angli fied New Curate's projects for conquering the inveterate stagnation of the village life around him is his failure to appreciate the as pirations which are the people's terrestrial breath of life and the political conditions which set young men either tippling with J em Deady, or learning the goose-step by moonlight under the command of the village tailor. Father Dollard understands the tailor as well as the tippler and sees perfectly how a healthy national enthusiasm could regulate the ex cesses of both and render Irish life as full of manly energy as it is of national charm and poetic sensibility. His lyrics have done very much indeed to discourage the unnatural He gira from their native land which has tempted such myriads of the race from their wholesome mountain glens into the contamination of the.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Broad-Sheet Ballads: Being a Collection of Irish Popular Songs There is a difference that is easily perceived between the street song and the song of the country-side. The second may contain some lonely thought, some personal emotion, but the first deals only with such passion, such humour, or such sentiment as the moving crowd can appreciate. It is easy to recall an example of either kind. Here is a song of the countryside: I'm a stranger to this countrie: From Amerikay I came; There's few here that knows me, But they can't tell my name. Some say I'm foolish, And more say I'm wise, And some say I'm guilty Fair maids to beguile. But we'll make them all liars If you'll come with me, To the Lands of Amerikay, My darling to be. In the middle of the Ocean May there grow a willow tree On the day I prove false To the lass that loves me. That the moon it may darken And show me no light The time I prove false To my own heart's delight About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Ballad Poetry of Ireland (Classic Reprint) written by Charles Gavan Duffy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ballad Poetry of Ireland Three editions of this collection having been exhausted in less than a month, the publisher has called upon me to prepare a fourth; and with this object I have gone over it carefully, and expunged as many as I could detect of the original sins incident to early editions - errors of the press, of haste, and of carelessness. Something of this kind was done for the Third Edition but there was not leisure to do it carefully. It will now, I trust, be found tolerably free from errors of the class chargeable on an editor. The success of these ballads seems to me to give happy promise of a vigorous and national literature in Ireland. Ballads have been among the first home-grown productions of all countries and their popularity here now is no slight evidence that the national mind is still fresh and earnest, and has the impulses and propensities that belong to a young nation.

For his comrades at their leader's call beside the streamlet's bank Were filing from their ferny beds in many a serried rank And now along their ordered lines Fertullagh's accents came The foeman through our native fields speeds down with sword and flame We'll meet him as we ever did; and though we are but few, We'll meet him in the eastward pass, and give him welcome due 1 They gained that pass when morning leapt above the eastern wave, And half his men to Owney Oge the hardy Chieftain gave Now lie ye here in ambush close while we retreat below, And when the last of the band have passed we'll spring upon the foe l.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irish Songs: A Collection of Airs Old and New While the airs that have become most popular possess some peculiar attraction in rhythm, melody, or sentiment that has made them linger in the heart, there are other airs less direct, perhaps, in their appeal but more subtle in their charm. In the nature of things such airs are less widely known. Quite a sheaf of them are to be found in this volume. They possess uncommon beauty in music and text, together with the true Celtic flavor, and must appeal to lovers of the artistic in Folk Song everywhere. Apart from the melodies of Old Ireland, some of the modern popular Irish songs have been incorporated. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Songs of the Gael by : Walsh Patrick
Download or read book Songs of the Gael written by Walsh Patrick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Songs of the Gael: A Collection of Anglo-Irish Songs and Ballads Wedded to Old Traditional Irish Airs As to the songs - I have aimed at selecting those which have in them the true national ring. We want in the Ireland of to-day an antidote to the Spirit of Anglicisation which is abroad. I know no more effective barrier against the encroach ment of that Spirit, next to the Irish Language and Irish Song, than the general singing at concerts and gatherings of good anglo-irish ballads and songs. The music hall and concert room may be made a very powerful agency in de-nationalising and even in debasing our people. From a national and moral point of View what effect can empty, Vulgar, mawkishly sentimental songs have And such songs are only too often heard at our so-called Irish Concerts. Or the song whose lewd allusions are thinly veiled? Or the songs that ignore and deliberately eschew the glories and noble deeds and sacri fices of our past heroes - what effect can such songs as these have on Irish youth It has been truly said that in a nation's ballads we find the history of its struggles and pro gress and triumph. A nation's habits, too, and its traditions and recollections are enshrined in its ballads. The wandering bards and minstrels became the keepers of the records of the nation and hence they were hunted down by the oppressors. A well-known collector of Irish ballads claims for Ireland as high a rank in ballad literature as that of any other nation. In this collection which I now give to the public, Irish men and women will find songs which are all racy of the soil.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Romances and Ballads of Ireland Tm: short space allowed for introductory matter in the twenty-third volume of this work, was devoted by me to an essay on the arrangement and nomenclature of minor poetry. A farther consideration of this subject has induced me to make some alterations in that arrangement. In this volume I republish the essay, with those alterations which a closer examination and more exact analysis have convinced me' to be necessary. The present volume contains Ballads and Romances poems of the fifth and sixth classes, according to the sub joined nomenclature. Of all the classes of minor poetry, the most interesting and valuable, in a national point of view, is the Romance. The people, whose heroic deeds, and noble thoughts, and graceful legends, are preserved in narrative poetry, of a high order, can never pass away from the world of the mind.
