tony-molloy I've always loved Éabha's voice ever since I first heard her singing with ANÚNA many years ago. There is something distinctive and soothing about it. Favourite track, well at the moment after a few listens it's "You Are Home". There is a deep sense of belonging, of home, in most of us irish. It's just the way we are. "Loud" would run it a close second though. Favorite track: You Are Home.

Drum, through the night Humble and Still Rise, for the dawn Gentle she will Wait, for the light Fear not the dark Lift, every soul Follow her spark Although we wander Our roots lead us home Echo the rhythm of earth, As we roam Fly, Watch her wave Fleeting for days Stars,Dance a while Warrior prays Haste,Let it pass Merciless fate Strong,Like the tide Graciously wait Although we wander Our roots, Lead us home Echo the rhythm of earth, As we roam I watch her wait Fleeting for days Stars dance a while Warrior prays Drum, through the night Humble and Still Rise, for the dawn Gentle she will Although we wander Our roots lead us home Echo the rhythm of earth as we roam Although we wander Our roots lead us home Echo the rhythm of earth as we roam

Wildflowers 03:15
lyrics

Inside her garden The wildflowers grew Painted with colours Pink, yellow and blue Falling in circles The petals flew down They Jumped up the garden And danced through the town She said I know of a place Where wild flowers grow A sea of bright colours Pink blue and yellow Gathered by children They ran to the sea Releasing wildflowers So they could be free The petals swam up To the next little town Saved by a lady Who thought they might drown She said I know of a place Where wild flowers grow A sea of bright colours Pink blue and yellow Like treasure they hid Within an old book When one day her daughter Would finally look She found the wildflowers Beside them a note A poem from her mother And on it she wrote She said I know of a place Where wild flowers grow A sea of bright colours Pink, blue and yellow I know of a place Where wild flowers grow A sea of bright colours Pink, blue and yellow

Winter breeze, fallen leaves Through the dark follow me Call my name When you're lost and alone I will bring you back home Call my name You are not alone I will take you where you need to go When the road that you know Seems so far far away Call my name Summer air are you there If you are follow me Call my name Morning rain seasons fade Here we are follow me Call my name You are not alone I will take you where you need to go When the road that know Seems so far far away Call my name Tír onóireach, tír dúchasach fan orainn Tír onóireach, tír dúchasach féach orainn Tír onóireach, tír dúchasach Light the dark as you are Standing bright shining spark Call my name If you fall never fear Through it all I am near Call my name You are not alone I will take you where you need to go When the road that you know Seems so far far away call my name When the road that you know Seems so far far away Call my name

In a world that only I know It's a place where only I go There's a child in me you can't see A light of hope she's brave and free It's your voice your stage tell the truth About change and unity too If we stand for peace we have won Sing me songs with freedoms drum We are just heartbeats of a time Sing it out like a child We are one no two the same Living life a precious fame We are just heartbeats of a time Sing it out like a child We are one no two the same Free at last sing it again If you go within are you proud Do you stand for peace in the crowd With an open heart do you see Equal people brave and free There's a place where only you go In the days where fear takes its toll There's a child in you I can see Your light of hope will set you free We are just heartbeats of a time Sing it out like a child We are one no two the same Living life a precious flame We are just heartbeats of a time Sing it out like a child We are one no two the same Free at last sing it again

Luí síos a stóirín Agus lig do scíth Is minic nár tháinig tú abhaile Luí síos a stóirín Seas suas a stór mo chroí Táim ar ais faoi dheireadh Tuigim gur d'fhan tú i d'aonair Seas suas a stóirín Dún do shúile A stóirín bhig Is minic gur imigh tú thar sáile Luí síos a stóirín

When We Dream 03:18
lyrics
buy track
When I'm asleep  You come to me  A gentle breeze  With light you lead  And when we dream  Where do we go  To stay a while  A place we know  Still you softly sing my lullaby Drifting, fading, leave me in the sky Carefully you shield me from the rain To a place where we can love again And when You dream Where do you go? To safely stay A place we know Where old friends meet A youthful place No sadness here A loving space Still you softly sing my lullaby Drifting, fading, leave me in the sky Patiently I wait, you'll see me there With cherry blossom petals in my hair One simple moment I'd give whatever To dance under the winter sun When I'm asleep  You come to me  Your gentle breeze  With light you lead  And when I wake  My soul you take  I wish you'd stay  You leave in peace

In The Quiet 03:01
lyrics
buy track
Your voice so calm and clear Alone you did appear Each passing day know the sun will rise Your light will feel my lonesome eyes Did angels lead you here I asked if you could stay If they could promise to keep you near Would you come home some day In the quiet you'll hear me call Delicate feathers, watch me fall Angel wings, on my window pain See you again Remember jokes you told The ones of growing old Now seasons pass, And the tides still rise But I still see your eyes My thoughts will be of you Until my days are through I hope we meet on a summers day Your favourite month was May In the quiet you'll hear me call Delicate feathers, watch me fall Angel wings , on my window pain See you again Wait for me, Until then See you there my friend

Please hold on Your not alone You may feel lost On this unknown road You prayed for days Just to see the light On your face To give you strength Fly one more day Please try one more day Did you forget me It's been a while I know those hands And I know that smile I'll stay right here Until darkness clears No more fear Fly one more day Please try one more day Please hold on You've come so far The darkest night Holds the brightest star Things move on But I will stay Lift you up Give you strength Fly one more day Please try one more day

You Are Home 03:06

When the journey feels longer Than the road that you chose When the doubt filled your silence Strength arose Look not to the past Sweet freedom at last Be the light Be the vision You are home When the words of another Shake the core of your soul If the last gentle heart Turned to stone One kind thought can fade The darkest of days Be the light Be the vision You are home

Wake us, if you see the light Wait for me, you will see Faith, it will slip away I will stay Listen, time will race until Quiet nights, make us still Sleep, meet you in the sky Every night Hear the native wings set us free Her native call, carry me Whistle to the night lullaby Dance with the moon as we fly Wake, if you see the light Wait for me, you will see Sigh, take my wings away Ray of light, fill my day Listen, time will race until Quiet nights, make us still Sleep, meet you in the sky Every night Longing for the wind, See me free Sweet gentle air, carry me Even when apart, lead the way Her native call, carry me Don't be fearful I am always here Beidh mé I gcónaí libh Wait each day here Ná bíodh brón oraibh Beidh mé I gcónaí libh Open, love is over here Growing mind, crystal clear Sing, birds will she's a tear Keep them near Move, visit like the sun Lift us up, make us run Change, blossom in our arms From the start Whistle to the wind, Set me free Her native call, carry me Never far away from the sea Her native call, comfort me Her native call, comfort me

Tell me now are you lonely? Tell you something, so am I Wondering why Years passed us by Busy life, lots of people Why at night time, do we cry? Wishing away Most of our days Winter is near Autumn leaves turning brown Watching the moon Can you see it from your town Waves of the sea Brings you closer to me Where we are one A place I know you're free Tell me now are you lonely Do you wonder if I am Even apart You have my heart Do you smile like you used to Are they kind there Where you are Sharing our stars Watch from afar Winter is near Autumn leaves turning brown Watching the moon Can you see it from your town Summer is here In my dreams you are near Smiled as you spoke So real but then I woke Tell me now are you lonely Tell you something so am I Each passing day You're further away Life is short so come back now Think it's time now you came home Where you are loved Never alone Tell me now are you lonely So am I

Loud 03:08
lyrics

Watching your embers, come crashing down Feeling your heat, are we burning All of your land, it is drying out Running away, why are we running away Whispering winds, say you cry at night Fire and floods, they are coming Begging for change, so you light the sky Running away, why are we running away Call, calling Hey now, Hey now Set us free somehow We're calling you out We'll scream and we'll shout out Loud Shaking the earth, do we feel your pain Scream and you howl are you dying Almost too late, can we start again Running away, why are we running away Call, calling Hey now, Hey now Set us free somehow We're calling you out We'll scream and we'll shout out Loud Mother of earth, you're the one who gave birth To the rain and oceans so blue Calling you now, can you hear us calling for you. Hey now, Hey now Set us free somehow We're calling you out We'll scream and we'll shout out Loud
