Aisling Fhéile (Vision of Feale)prod. by Bantum
The Aisling is a vision or dream poem, which developed in Gaelic poetry in Munster during the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
The first rapper I ever heard invoke a river in this tradition was Dyrt Davis. Rivers are often used as a personification for the struggle of the people .i. 'Only Our Rivers Run Free' - the powerful song by Fermanagh/Listowel bard Mickey McConnell being a relevant example.
I'd always wanted to compose verses to the River Feale. But you can't compose an Aisling - it has to hit you in a flash-vision, in time of need.
AISLING FHÉILE is an invocation of a new sense of identity,
in a time of alienation - a call to artists across Cúige Mumhan today:
Adeir Súil Amháin-
is mise Sruth Féile, cé hé tú féinig?
Is féidir leat éisteacht leis an gceol nua anseo
