Yaweh look now on me
Clouded the sky I see
Make my eyes crystal clear
Walk with me to the water

Tabhair domh do lámh
Tabhair domh do lámh
Tabhair domh do lámh

Yaweh You gave me love
Cradle this flame above
Rest Your hands upon my head
Lead me down to the water

Tabhair domh do lámh
Tabhair domh do lámh
Tabhair domh do lámh

Yaweh make me Your stream
Place me inside Your dream
Touch my mouth, softly call
Take me out to the water

Tabhair domh do lámh
Tabhair domh do lámh
Tabhair domh do lámh

This is just what the doctor ordered in the current stage of life I'm in. Thanks, Bill. 
One dang talented family.
Talented family, those Brennans.
And I’m back in that same place, summer now. Wonderful place.

Divine! Mesmerizing choral rhapsody, blows my mind, every time...

Only an hour or so ago I spun up Enya’s first release. But this, this from
Moya … is just sublime.
Wow. Great song. I was surprised to learn it was Enya's sister.  Bill, that is a find for me. Thanks.

A shame, it's quite pretty! More please!


Dipping Sauce - Moya is back in rotation more frequently  
Or maybe, just getting commented on more frequently
Tabhair domh do lámh means "give me your hand".  As a longtime river runner I find these lyrics interesting.
Great!! Nice voice. I never heard of her before.  Thanx RP!

A little too much effect on the vocal but I still like it.




I think the "plate reverb sound" on the vocals is great!

Lovely segue in theme and vibe.  Walking on Air - To the Water.
I saw Clannad at their peak, blew me away! 9 members on stage, every few songs 1/2 the band would switch instruments...all so freaking talented. The music was stellar
LOVE Maire Brennan, and Clannad, too. Best enjoyed oceanside.
Wow! The 1st track of my DC shift tonight. Love it. The track.
Oh my...... sounds like a Mike Oldfield track with Maire as guest vocalist. Perfect!
Love this song.....first listen ........8   :o)   Connecticut 
beautiful — more like this pleasee!
Angelic voice, ethereal music - Bill, please don't leave it 14 years to play this again! {#Notworthy}{#Sunny}
It's a great album all around..
Fabulous...Ethereal...Divine... Magical and mystical, it soothes my Celtic soul in this time of almost apocalyptic anxiety and uncertainty.

She is also the lead singer of Clannad.
Marie Brennan is Enya's sister.
