"I will raise sails and west I'll speed -
I won't come back 'til Saint John's Eve..."

This song is a celebration of the currach, the fishing boat that is still used in the west of Ireland.

The sheet music includes both the original Gaelic words and an accurate, singable English translation. It is 4 pages, 8½" x 11", printed in black on ivory paper, and includes words (3 verses in each language), music, chord symbols, and an arrangement for the lever harp that does justice to its lovely melody. Level: easy to intermediate.

This song is also available as part of our 8-piece set of Irish folk songs, which is available in our eBay store. Click here to see them all.
