about

A keening song, performed in Gaelic and English. Ron Coleman wrote the lyrics for his own funeral.

lyrics

Cry loud from the wild
From first breath drawn
Till last breath's rattle
Cry loud from the wild.

Cry loud in the dawn
From the sun's gentle embrace,
That quickens the spirits’ travels
Cry loud in the dawn.

Cry loud to the dark
As the spirit finds its rest
It will wait to be reborn.
Cry loud to the dark.

Cry loud from the wild
Begin the fire of life
That will end once more in death.
Cry loud from the wild .

Cry wild, cry wild, cry wild.
