On Saturday I’ll be doing a live zoom link-up with Ireland for the Cáca Milis Cabaret from Wexford. I have played at it a few times in the past in Dublin and Wexford so I’m delighted to get to be virtually there via the wonders of technology this time around. You can get your ticket via www.Wexfordartscentre.ie

So I took a wander across the train tracks, past both Biden and Trump signs on people’s lawns to find the Middle Rouge river down at Hynes park here in Plymouth and a lovely nature walk it turned out to be. The song that came to mind was Lonely River by Gene Autry so here’s some of that song for you. I hope wherever you are you are enjoying the outdoors and finding some time to spend in nature.

Biodh Áilleacht Ann

Let There Be Beauty by Enda Reilly

Féach an fharraige

Hear the foaming waves

Féach na carraigeacha

See those rocky caves

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Clos na teangacha

Hear the many tongues

Tá muid ceangailte

See we’re all as one

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Fásann duile amháin

One leaf grows green

Téann sé ó glas go donn

loses it’s sheen

Titeann sé ón gcrann

falls from the tree

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bris na driseacha

Break the bramble canes

Bris na slabhraí móra

Break those heavy chains

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Fásann duile amháin

One leaf grows green

Téann sé ó glas go donn

loses it’s sheen

Titeann sé ón gcrann

falls from the tree

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Titeann sé sa chré

Falls to the clay

Ach piocann tusa é

It found you today

Is thug tú domsa é

You sent it my way

Is an áilleacht ann

And the beauty therein

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty

Bíodh áilleacht ann

Let there be beauty
