An raibh tú ar an gCarraig (Were you on the rock) - Liam O Maonlai ft. The Swell Season

and this song has a little explanation it's in in our old language which is still used we call it gay again and this song comes from the girl talk then it comes from a time when religion was forbidden and our own religion was forbidden another religion was being brought in and this song is to be sung it's a it's a love song and the singer asks the question were you at the mass rotten were you at the rock yeah the mass rock did you see my love was she shining and beautiful was she asking for me or was she the fruit of womanhood and was she asking for me and the second verse goes yes I was at the rock yes I saw your love yes she was absolutely gorgeous and no she wasn't or yes she was it depends whether and this is the this is the code of the song did the answer at the end would be either yes or no and if the answer the song would be song in public gathering of people and if the answer was yes it would mean that the local people would be safe to go to this secret place the rock to to practice their service their mass and if the answer was yes they could go and if the answer was no they couldn't go so it's a cold song but it's very beautiful now you you you you - way to go I'm good too No nothing in August No Oh good morning Cheeta monthly marathon Oh mother honey Hey Oh you know oh goodness Nick Manto ah I'd be will be funny the 17 she'd of the fleet ah
