“I have lived abroad for many, many years. Now that I have retired I am going back to learning the piano like I did in school all those years ago. It is a pleasure to have Irish themes available to my ...”

“Very clear, easy to read music. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that the melody is a little different from the versions I'm used to. Still, it's a beautiful song and well worth playing.”

“I love this song”

“very good”

About My Gallant Darling

"Mo Ghile Mear" is an Irish song. The modern form of the song was composed in the early 1970s by Dónal Ó Liatháin (1934–2008), using a traditional air collected in Cúil Aodha, County Cork, and lyrics selected from Irish-language poems by Seán "Clárach" Mac Domhnaill (1691–1754).
