Gaelic is angelic, isn't it?
Fear a' Bhàta (The boatman) is an 18th-century Gaelic song, written by Sìne NicFhionnlaigh (Jean Finlayson) of Tong who was courting a young fisherman from Uig, Dòmhnall MacRath. The song is pretty heavy but it has a happy ending. They got married not long after she composed the song.
