Celtic Woman - Dúlamán

♫~•~*~•~♫~•~*~•~♫~•~*~•~♫~•~*~•~♫~•~*~•~♫~•~*~•~♫~•~*~•~♫~•~*~•~♫

When I was in high school, I met a girl who came from an Irish background. I had never met anyone with family from Ireland before, so I loved hearing all the stories she told me about her family's culture and the traditions they had. She explained to me that the language originating from Ireland is called Gaelic (pronounced 'gay-lik'). Then she taught me my first Gaelic word: dúlamán. It means seaweed. It seems very random, I know, but she chose that word because while she was telling me about Gaelic, she also introduced me to the music of Ireland: Celtic music (pronounced either 'keltic' or 'seltic', but most Irish people say 'keltic' including my Irish friend). She showed me a song titled "Dúlamán", and it's the song I chose to share with you today. Since it was my first introduction to Celtic music and Gaelic, I thought it made sense for it to be your first as well (that is if you haven't already listened to Celtic music before).

"Dúlamán" as a song is a very fun, yet beautiful composition with obvious Celtic rhythm and instruments. The artist that sings this song is Celtic Woman. They are a very famous group of women known for their Celtic music sung in Gaelic, English, and several other languages. They are extremely talented and can sometimes be seen on TV performing on stage with an orchestra. I posted a lyric video with a translation for you to hear the song and know what it means, but I highly recommend looking up their concerts and watching them perform live. I guarantee you won't be disappointed. Today, I hope you enjoy listening to "Dúlamán" and hearing the wonderful talent of Celtic Woman.
