Click below for translations and explanation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cara_Dillon Song about a lost love. There are many lyrics, sometimes quite mixed, as here. Either a lot romantic love, or more traditionally, the loss of a Catholic priest (maybe to become a Protestant or for a woman). Recorded on CDs by many artists. Originally a popular Donegal song. See http://mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=14833 for some context (but a lot more to be said). D'fhás Cara Dillon aníos i nDún Geimhin, ceantar i nDoire Thuaidh a bhfuil traidisiún láidir den cheol ann. Is beag an t-iontas, mar sin, gur bhain Cara Corn Uile-Éireann san Amhránaíocht ag Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann nuair nach raibh sí ach ina déagóir. Chaith Cara tamall ag canadh le hÓige, le De Danann agus le Equation sular thosaigh sí ag taifeadadh ceoil le Sam Lakeman faoin ainm Polar Star. Tá an bheirt ag taifeadadh le chéile ó shin. Tá trí albam eisithe acu agus ba mhinic iad ar an bhóthar le chéile ag déanamh ceoil ar fud na tíre. Agus tá Cara Dillon agus a fear céile Sam Lakeman go fóill ag cur a lucht féachana faoi dhraíocht ar fud an domhain le ceol s'acu.
