about

Air from PATRICK MACDONALAD’S collection, 1871

“The thrush’s song of Glen-na-sail,
The hounds deep bay at twilight's fall,
The barque’s sharp grating on the shore,
Than cleric’s chants delight me more."

Words after THOS PATTISON'S translation from Ossian "The sweet voice of Cona."

Musical directions 1909
"With the still, ecstatic serenity of a summer noontide."

lyrics

Sleeps the noon in the deep blue sky, while bright the sun shines on Cona’s Steep. Sweet sounds the note of the lonely Heron. Sleeps the noon in the deep blue sky. Bright the sun shines on Cona’s Steep, while hounds for chase all on fire are straining.Their deep-mouthed bay, sweet as bardic music. Sleeps the noon in the deep blue sky. Sweet the wind, softly murmuring, of Eagle sweet is the far-heard cry as sails she o’er Morven's mighty sea-board. Sleeps the noon in the deep blue sky.
