The Auld Triangle - Michael Kelly & Colette The Bard - (Dicky Shannon - Dubliners cover)

My cover of the Auld Triangle, a song that I discovered is surprisingly popular in many Irish pubs. The song was first performed in 1954 as part of a play by Irish playwright and poet Brendan Behan called "The Quare Fellow", with credit for the writing of the lyrics being given to Behan's friend Dicky Shannon. The song was largely popularized a decade later by Luke Kelly and the Dubliners. The song makes reference to the unfairly harsh treatment of Irish prisoners in British prisons. At Mountjoy Prison, a large metal triangle was rung to wake prisoners in the morning, but such instruments were often used to disturb the sleep of Irish prisoners late into the evening as a form of psychological torture. I'm joined in the choruses of the song in 6-part harmony with the very talented Colette La Trouvere (aka Colette the Bard). --- If you enjoy my music, please visit my Patreon page and consider becoming a patron of the arts!

And clean up your cell!" And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle All along the banks of the Royal Canal On a fine Spring evening The lag lay dreaming And the sea-gulls wheeling High above the wall And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle All along the banks of the Royal Canal Oh! the lag lay sleeping Humpy Gussy was creeping As I lay there weeping O'er my girl, Sal And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle All along the banks of the Royal Canal Up in the female prison There are seventy five women And it's among them I wish I did dwell Then the auld triangle could go jingle-jangle All along the banks of the Royal Canal All along the banks of the Royal Canal
