about

An Aisling poem written by Tipperary poet Liam Dall Ó hIfearnáin (William Dall Heffernan) (1720–1803). Liam Dall (blind Liam) never married, but he thought that he would be married to a girl in Shronell named Ellen Moloney, whom he said was the most beautiful and loveliest girl that was known, and he wrote a song about her "Eilís ó Srónfhaill". After Ellen died Liam Dall wrote another song about her "Pé in Éirinn í ". In this aisling poem the poet is infatuated by the vision of a woman of great beauty but is tormented each day by thinking of her. His life is sad and without purpose until the day she appears before him. I fell immediately in love with this song when I heard Seamus Begley singing it at a Blás music residency that I was awarded in 2013 at the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance (University of Limerick).
