This song was written by Seán McBride in about 1955. Seán was a native of Cruit island which is in the Rosses area of Donegal (West Donegal). He was a school Teacher at St.Baithins school in the Carrigans/St.Johnston area (East Donegal) for most of his life. Seán passed away at the age of 90 in August 1996 and is buried on Cruit Island. Seán only wrote the lyrics, the actual air itself is maybe 150 or more years old. There are many songs around using the same melody, but to my ears the closest one is a song called "The Faughan Side", This song was part of the Curriculum in national schools in East Donegal and as Seán was a Teacher in the "Laggan Valley" (South Inishowen) I'm pretty sure that is where he got his inspiration for the "Homes of Donegal". This version by Paul Brady is from his 1985 album "Back to the Centre" Here are the Lyrics.... Homes Of Donegal (Seán McBride) I've just called in to see you all, I'll only stay a while I want to see how you're getting on, I want to see you smile. I'm happy to be back again, I greet you big and small, For there's no place else on earth just like the homes of Donegal. I always see the happy faces, smiling at the door, The kettle swinging on the crook, as I step up the floor. And soon the taypot's fillin' up me cup that's far from small, For your hearts are like your mountains, in the homes of Donegal. To see your homes at parting day of that I never tire, And hear the porridge bubblin' in a big pot on the fire. The lamp alight <b>...</b>

www.donegalcottageholidays.com Donegal is located in the northwest corner of Ireland and dotted along its rugged, indented coastline are some of the finest surfing beaches and golf links in the country. It's a great place for a family holiday with many attractions to visit such as Glenveagh National Park and Europe's highest sea cliffs at Sliabh League. In recent years restaurants have been sourcing produce from local farmers and fishermen - now many of these restaurants appear in the Bridgestone Guide (Ireland's good food bible) If you are planning a trip to Ireland, we'd love to see you in Donegal - enjoy viewing.

The Homes of Donegal performed by an array of Irish musical talent lead by Paul Brady, including Moya Brennan (Clannad), Glen Hansard (The Frames), Mundy, Sarah Siskind and Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh (Altan). This was filmed on the 3rd of May 2010 in Leo's Tavern, Mín na Leice, County Donegal and it's a great example of a good aul Irish sing a long!!!! Brady goes through all the towns and villages of Donegal, even Mín Doire Dhamh at 5:14 !!! This concert was part of the Save Our Scenery (SOS) campaign. Alternatives to Pylons and Coiste Timpeallachta Ghaoth Dobhair are local people objecting to the ESB & Eirgrid's plans to erect a 110kv power line on 20 metre (60ft) high pylons across 102 kilometres (63 miles) of Donegal's most scenic areas. The proposed route goes through Special Areas of Conservation and areas of immense natural beauty that would affect protected species and habitats. Not to mention the detrimental effect to local residents health. Studies in the UK, Germany and US have shown that incidents of child leukaemia and adult cancers are increased for people living near power lines. Childhood cancers increase 69% near power lines. Since 2000 Donegal Alternatives to Pylons have raised over €25000 in the community to fight this campaign at two Oral Hearings in 2000 and 2009, having to pay expert witnesses to argue the case against this over ground high voltage power line.
