This is a collection of traditional Gaelic songs from the Hebrides of Scotland, with musical scores and English translations. They were collected during the early 1900s when the people of the Scottish Highlands and Islands still lived a traditional lifestyle they had followed for hundreds of years. The songs were composed and sung by the women of the Isles, not only at their diversions, but also during almost every kind of work where more than one person is concerned, as milking cows, watching the folds, fulling of cloth, grinding of grain with the quern, haymaking and cutting down corn.
