Written and performed in Manx Gaelic by Paul Rogers, the song runs through the traditions and customs of this time of year, from fires and crosses over your doorway to protect against evil, through to the mock battle of summer and winter that proceeds dancing and feasting.
The words are as follows (Manx first, with English translation below):
Cochiaull: Noght Oie Voaldyn, aile syn oie, Daunse-jee marin, nane, jees, three, Ta'n vadran çheet as ver ee lhee, Yn Sourey as bluightyn bwee.
2. Druight y voghree son aigh vie, Yiow mayd eh ec brishey yn laa, Ver mayd blaaghyn roish y thie, Croshyn keirn er famman ny baa.
3. Yn ven saaley reih mayd ee, Son Benrein y Touree ain, As ayns attey nee mayd fee, Blaaghyn baney'n villey drine.
4. Hig yn Çheshaght Yeuree magh, Caggey mooar as keoi vees eh, Yiow yn Sourey barriaght, Nee Ree Geuree roie er çhea.
ENGLISH (translation):
1. Fires burning in every part, Hills and valleys, the summit of Barrule, Beat drum, blow horn, Driving away every witch and spectre.
Chorus: Tonight is May Eve, fire in the night, Dance with us, one, two, three, The dawn is coming and it will bring, The Summer and yellow May flowers.
2. Morning dew for good luck, We will gather it at daybreak, We will lay flowers before the house, Rowan crosses on the cow's tail.
3. The fairest woman we shall choose, For our Summer Queen, And in a crown we shall weave, The white flowers of the thorn tree.
4. The Winter Host will come out, A great and crazy battle it will be, The Summer will be victorious, The Winter King will flee.
This song written and performed by Paul Rogers, who won a Culture Vannin prize for a best new song in 2020. More about this competition and the other winners can be found here: manxmusic.com/news_story_639970.html

They have repeatedly gone out of their way to position Manx as a key aspect of our cultural identity, important to be celebrated and promoted as an essential part of what makes our Island unique.
This film was made to find out more about this, and also as an opportunity to surprise them with the Londeyr award. Presented annually by Jeebin, the Manx Language Network, the Londeyr (or ‘lantern’) award was introduced in 2018 and celebrates a person or a group making new efforts to increase the use of the Manx language on a daily basis.

What do they hope their children will gain from it? How do they find themselves connecting with the wider language community? … The answers are more diverse than you might think.
Manx is a language revitalisation success story celebration all over the world. At the centre of this modern flourishing of the Isle of Man's Gaelic language is its place within the education system and, in particular, the Manx language medium school, the Bunscoill Ghaelgagh. This film speaks to parents of children currently in the Bunscoill Ghaelgagh, as well as with some of the important figures behind the school's continued success today.
More information about the Bunscoill Ghaelgagh can be found here: https://bunscoillghaelgagh.sch.im/
This film was made by Jeebin, the Manx Language Network, with the assistance of Culture Vannin. It was first shown at the British Irish Council in 2021, as a focal point for discussions around EML and Early Years.
