Blessed Imbolc to everyone! This ancient Irish festival is also the feast day to St. Brigid, a woman and patron saint of Ireland who founded a holy house at Kildare. Most scholars agree this saint is a continuation of the pre-Christian deity/magical woman Bríde, who is chronicled in several medieval Irish texts- in some cases, she is described as three sisters named Bríg- daughters of the Dagda. One Bríg is a healer (a “leech-woman”), another a blacksmith, and a third a muse/bringer of poetry. St. Brigid was de-canonized by the Catholic church in the late 20th century, probably due to doubts that the saint herself ever existed, but she continues to be popularly revered across Ireland and beyond! Here are a few verses of the gaelic song “Gabhaim molta Bride,” in praise of Bríde/Brigid (lyrics below). Gabhaim molta Bride Ionmhain í le hÉireann Ionmhain le gach tír í Molaimis go léir í Praise to you dear Bride Cherished of our people Cherished foster-mother Midwife and provider The lyrics are thought to come from a poem by Tomás Ó Flannghaile, or Thomas Flannery (1846-1916). This second verse is my own, using the sentiments of the original poem by Ó Flannghaile. #goddessbrigid #imbolc #imbolcblessings #saintbrigid #pagansongs #paganritual #paganchant #restoreroe #womenshistory #womensrights #medievalwomen #feministmusic #bard #irishsong #irishgaelicsong
Happy Imbolc my good people! Here is a prayer to Brigid collected in the Hebrides of Scotland. Translated here from Scots-Gaelic, found in the compendium known as the Carmina Gadelica, collected by Alexander Carmichael. May we feel the protection of Brigid as we look hopefully to coming germination of the seeds and the return of the milk, even as we still find gratitude for the lessons of the winter.  Each day and each night That I say the Descent of Brigit, I shall not be slain, I shall not be sworded, I shall not be put in cell, I shall not be hewn, I shall not be riven, I shall not be anguished, I shall not be wounded, I shall not be ravaged I shall not be blinded I shall not be made naked, I shall not be left bare, Nor will Christ leave me forgotten Nor fire shall burn me, Nor sun shall burn me, Nor moon shall blanche me. Nor water shall drown me Nor flood shall drown me Nor brine shall drown me Nor seed of fairy host shall lift me Nor seed of airy host shall lift me Nor earthly being destroy me I am under the shielding Of good Brigit each day; I am under the shielding Of good Brigit each night. I am under the keeping Of the nurse of Mary Each early and late, Every dark, every light. Brigit is my comrade-woman, Brigit is my maker of song, Brigit is my helping-woman, My choicest of women, my guide. #goddessbrigid #imbolc #imbolcblessings #saintbrigid #pagansongs #paganritual #paganchant #restoreroe #womenshistory #pagantok #womensrights #medievalwomen #feministmusic #bard #irishsong #irishgaelicsong
