how this unspeakable sadness sank in
to an old Gaelic tune
with an unpronounceable name
played by a young string quartet
never before fully felt
inherited deep and rich
sadness landed
bitter but sweet
not heavy just right
so brave the knight
so loving his lady
so cold the night
thank you Mór Chaimbeul
great tune and great sadness
bittersweet madness
your love my delight
Griogal Cridhe
