Listen to Cu Chulainn’s lament by the great Davey Spillane

On the eve of the battle at Muirthemne it is said CùChulainn heard the harp of the bean sidhe Aiobhell,  Her music is too beautiful for mortal ears, and so he knew then that his life was coming to an end.

My brother, in loving memory-

"though fire be mixed with my dust yet care I not for now all is well with me" - your smile made everyone want to be your friend. You are much missed.

Robin

your light shone so brightly

it is inevitable that everything we love will eventually be taken from us, yet love will always return to us in a different form
