We had the school Feis last Saturday. The Princess won second place with her rendition of “An TÃogar” by Máire Nà Ghallchobhair. She was very pleased.
And she got cake.
Neither of her brothers won anything (“An Seilide” by Gabriel Rosenstock for Michael and “An bhfaca tú mo ShéamaisÃn?” Traditional for Daniel). They both cried. Not in the course of their performance but on hearing the results of the independent jury. Alas.
I’m working on “An bhfaca tú” myself at the moment! Singing, not reciting. Honestly, it doesn’t scan all that well…
If he’d looked after his hay machine properly, he wouldn’t have to look for it.
Weell, I would say it was the choice of song only that song was amongst the winners also. Alas.
MT, it took me a while. Oh and congratulations!
