It is a lament for a love, as well a culture and nation lost. As sung by Mike O'Laughlin live at the Irish Roots Cafe, and recorded by www.Irishroots.com This highly ornamented version, bears some controversy today as to the 'unconventional' use of the Irish language in spots. The matter rests with Sean Nos and the singers of yore. The officially accepted lyrics to this version of the song will appear on our web page at www.Irishroots.com

 An Raibh tu ar an gCarraig - Were you at the Rock? | File Type: video/x-m4v | Duration: 2:29

Learn more at www.Irishroots.com Performed at the Irish Roots Cafe, as sung and interpreted by Mike O'Laughlin. As with many songs, this one carries a secret meaning, sort of a code language. During a time when the Irish language, teaching and celebrating Mass was outlawed, the people often met in secret to keep the old ways. Code words might be used, as in ... are the apples in bloom?, if the answer was yes, then it meant, yes, a secret meeting was on that night - it might be held at the Mass Rock, or another hiding place. So we may sing of the apples, or ask if our love was out and about and well. The yes or no answer, was indeed to another question altogether. (i.e. The eagle has landed) Lyrics to this song will appear on our blog at www.Irishroots.com
