Fonn i cúlaidhe, Fonn i cúla

That last post reminded me of that most beloved of Irish folk tunes. Sing a chorus with me, won't you?
Hó ró, hó ró! sult is greann is ceol!
Hó ró, hó ró! sult is greann is ceol!
Fá la la lá, fá la la lá
Fá la la lá, fá la la lá
Sult is greann is ceol
Fá la la lá, fá la la lá!
(Complete lyrics available on this useful site.) If you have a little trouble remembering how the tune goes, here's a concert version from The Chieftains to jog your memory. (Just do your best to ignore the singer. I don't know where they got him, but his Irish pronunciation is terrible!)
