A formal Irish name consists of a given name and a surname. In the Irish language, most surnames are patronymic surnames, distinct from patronyms, which are seen in Icelandic names, for example. The form of a surname varies according to whether its bearer is a man or a woman, and a woman married to a man, who adopts his surname. An alternative traditional naming convention consists of the first name followed by a double patronym, usually with the father and grandfather's names. This convention is not used for official purposes but is generalized in Gaeltachtaí (Irish-speaking areas) and also survives in some rural non-Gaeltacht areas. Sometimes the name of the mother or grandmother may be used instead of the father or grandfather. more »

Waiting for the snowdrops now
Yes, the flower, not the storm
The gloaming over the highest bough
Is not as dark as you
Mo chuísle, mo chroí , (My pulse, my heart,) cronaím thú (I miss you)
Oh, and might she be the one to unbind my soul
Don't wish on the bones of the holy
Can you hear the footsteps on the ground?
To me, these relics are lonely
Can you hear her keening sound?
Mo chuísle, mo chroí , (My pulse, my heart,) cronaím thú (I miss you)
Oh, and might she be the one to unbind my soul
She saw the orange on solstice hill
Heard the banshees wail and hum
Brought the plough to the field to till
Oh, the Ballyfinboy river's in my blood
Mo chuísle, mo chroí , (My pulse, my heart,) cronaím thú (I miss you)
Oh, and might she be the one to unbind my soul
Mo chuísle, mo chroí , (My pulse, my heart,) cronaím thú (I miss you)
Oh, and might she be the one to unbind my soul
