Description
Is beag spéis acadúil a cuireadh sna hamhráin mhacarónacha cé go rabhadar á gcanadh go forleathan go dtí ár linn féin. I measc théamaí na n-amhrán atá cnuasaithe anseo tá cúrsaí grá is suirí, cúrsaí polaitíochta, caointe, aoir, cráifeacht, deoch is imeachtaí spóirt.
Previously ignored by scholars or despised, macaronic songs are a true delight. Ó Muirithe reminds us that the tradition can be found among the Romans and the Greeks.
‘In sweet Doneraile is ea chaitheas mo shaol
And all my generations,
Gan buairt faoin saol till the Mallow Rakes
Disturbed my habitation . . .’
