Ní haon ionadh, amhrán grá atá i gceist anso. Strangely, I had no muse in particular when I wrote this (or maybe a few!), but it has now come to be associated in my mind with a friend who passed away. The lute riff in the chorus was written by him.
I gCeart Lár do Ghrá
Nuair a bhíonn an lá thart,
Mothaím do ghrá i gceart.
I gceart lár do ghrá
Cuireann tú mé go doimhin ar strae
Caillte is spionta ar feadh gach aon lá
i gceart lár do ghrá
Le titim na hoiche,
De ló istóiche
Anois is chóiche
a quick English translation...
Right in The Centre Of Your Love
When the day is over
I rightly sense you love
Right in the centre of your love
You deeply send me astray
Lost and spent each day
With the fall of night
night and day
now and forever
This is the second last track on the vinyl of Where Splendour Falls. I'm on guitars and Spanish lute. Ursula Scott is singing backing vocals. I was lucky to have Neil O' Loghlen playing bass on this track, he plays with the beautiful, boundary breaking trad. septet-Ensemble Eriú.
The digital download of "Where Splendour Falls" has an extra track.
To reserve a copy of the vinyl send an e-mail to info@charlieobrien.net
The record is being printed as we speak.
