One of the most popular love songs from the region of the Dingle Peninsula in West Kerry, it is thought that it was composed by Micí na gCloch Ó Súilleabháin around 1860. A heartbroken young man laments his lovers' betrayal and deliriously imagines walking with her again out on the mountains overlooking the sea, or of travelling to a deserted island where only the seabirds go to roost. His only solace is to be found in the 'juice of the barley', which lifts the mist on his heart.
