Give and get support around quitting
Mandolinrain suggested a music night a couple of days ago. So feel free to share some of your favorite Christmas tunes - I will start it off with some Garth!
I love that one , too!
LOVE this song, never fails to reduce me to tears.
Great idea, Jennifer and Missy. Glad I found this blog!
Here's one that I cannot listen to without the tears dripping.
John Renborn with Mairead Ni Dhomhnaill and the Voice Squad - Wexford Lullaby - YouTube
Putting the lyrics here as some are hard to grasp, but oh so beautiful.
WEXFORD LULLABY
(John Renbourn)
Lulay lulay, my tiny child
Too soon you'll know the world so wild
Yes all too soon you will be grown
And I'll bide here alone, alone.
The rushing bellows you shall ride
And the light of the North Star will be your guide
But yet awhile, I'll have you stay
Lulay my tiny child, lulay.
For you shall run in meadows green
And sport with otters all in the stream
And you shall chase the dapple deer
And swim with salmon in the waters clear.
To pluck the small birds from the sky
On the tail of the South wind, you shall fly
And take the high hills for your home
Blood of my blood, bone of my bone.
The moon must sleep beyond the tree
So weep sweet maid of Galilee
The sun must rise before the cross
To dry your tears and share your loss.
The darkest hour of the starless night
Must bow to the power of the Eastern light
That heals the earth and makes us whole
Heart of my heart, soul of my soul.
And when at last your course is run
Joy of my joy, my little son
Beneath the sky you'll stand alone
Flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone.
Yes you shall stand on the coal-black sands
To cross o'er the waters of the Western lands
But now I have you at my breast
Lulay my sweet one, gently rest.
