英國金榜百大金曲之一的充满自由,创造力,爱和信念!是为纪念英军1692年在苏格兰GLENCOE地区大屠杀的超级经典,刻画凯尔特人心中永远的痛。



Following a number of requests from her fans, the words of Moira's song "MacIain of Glencoe" are shown below. The song was of course inspired by the massacre of 38 members of the MacIain clan (a branch of the MacDonalds) who were murdered by government troops in February, 1692. If you want to read more about this infamous incident, you can find an article here.


MacIain of Glencoe

Yet still my lonely spirit soars... I am MacIain

The royal stag stands proudly on the hill
Falling prey to man his mortal foe
Some men know nought of dignity or pride
And strike with no respect their deadly blow.

Yet still my lonely spirit soars, amid the mountains and the glen
From my ancestral burial ground, I am MacIain
The name MacDonald echoes still, within the hearts of Highland men
My restless soul will never sleep, I am MacIain.

The east is flanked by Buachaile Etive Mor
At south the highest Bidian is here
Of treachery no warning will they give
But from the Signal Rock betrayal sounded clear.

Yet still my lonely spirit soars, amid the mountains and the glen
From my ancestral burial ground, I am MacIain
The name MacDonald echoes still, within the hearts of Highland men
My restless soul will never sleep, I am MacIain.

Yet still my lonely spirit soars, amid the mountains and the glen
From my ancestral burial ground, I am MacIain
The name MacDonald echoes still, within the hearts of Highland men
My restless soul will never sleep, I am MacIain.
My restless soul will never sleep..I am MacIain, I am MacIain.
