♫ Scottish Gaelic Music - Ba Mo Leanabh ♫

A sad but very beautiful lullaby. After the execution of the Clan Chief MacGregor of Glenstrae in 1570, his widow composed and sang this lullaby lament to her child. There exist several versions of this song, more commonly heard as Griogal Cridhe (Beloved Gregor). Here is the english translation of the text, originally in Gàidhlig (scottish gaelic): Oh hush-a-bye, my little baby Hush, my little baby, hush Oh hush-a-bye, my little baby My own little baby will go to sleep Though I am without a flock of sheep And the others all have sheep Though I am without a flock of sheep You, little baby, can go to sleep Darling, of the people of the great world They spilt your blood yesterday They put your head on an oaken post A little way from your corpse I breathlessly climbed the great mountain I climbed and I descended I would put the hair of my head under your feet And the skin of my two hands.
