Imbolc, with its reverence for the deity and Saint Brigid/Bride, is almost here! Praise the holy woman Bride!

A poem by Tomás Ó Flannghaile / Thomas Flannery (1846-1916)
Tune possibly by Seán Ó Tuama
Verses 2-4 by me, adapted largely from invocations to Bride from the Carmina Gadelica- a compendium of Scots-Gaelic folk practices.
*A note that the “i” in the “mis” of molaimis should be more of an “eh” sound than a hard “e” sound!*
