Description
This is what’s known as a “matchmaking song” in the Irish tradition.
It tells the story of a young woman, Méirí, who’s been eyeing up sailors (and then a piper) over the course of an evening – most likely during a seisiún ceol. The singer may be the woman’s father, teasing her for taking an interest in such men.
Performed by Celtic Woman
