i have fallen madly in love with the battlestar galactica soundtrack, which now plays on itunes nonstop while i'm at work to shut out the voices of people i don't want to listen to. celtic and gaelic music has a special place in my heart, and pan pipes have been one of my favourite instruments since the days of pastime (with good company), which means that wander my friends (the lee-adama theme), is of course the track i like the most:
(original Gaelic)
Siulaigi a chairde, siulaidh liom
Mar cheo an tsleibhe uaine ag
imeacht go deo
D’ainneoin ar dtuirse leanfam an tsli
Thar chnoic is thar ghleannta
go deireadh na scrib’.
(English Translation)
Wander my friends, wander with me
Like the mist on the green mountain, moving eternally
Despite our weariness,
we’ll follow the road
Over hills and valleys
to the end of the journey
