Mo Shlán Beo Soir
Ba é Donncha Mac Cárthaigh na Leamhna a chum an t-amhrán seo sa bhliain 1905 agus e ar deoraíocht i Meiriceá. Ag dul siar ar laethanta a óige a bhé se agus é go buartha brónach agus é ag smaoineamh ar a óige sa bhaile in Uíbh Ráthach.
This song was composed by Mac Carthaigh na Leamhna in 1905 whilst he was in America. He reflects on past memories and the happiness of his youth while sad and troubled far from home.
