Song of the Day: The Dubliners, “Kelly, The Boy From Killane”

Song of the Day 1 Minute

It’s St. Patrick’s Day, so I figured I’d throw in a tune from my piping days. "Kelly, The Boy From Killane" commemorates John Kelly, a United Irish leader who fought in the Irish Rebellion in 1798. His whole story, along with the lyrics to this song, can be found on Wikipedia. Lá fhéile Pádraig sona dhaoibh!
