New year, new growth 🌱 The Gaelic word fàs means “to grow” and was once tied to New Year traditions of prosperity and connection to the land. Today, we can honour it by simply noticing the trees around us. #Gàidhlig #GaelicCulture #Slàinte

“Gaelic place names like Achosnich and Sìthean Mòr carry echoes of solitude and story.”

The ninth in a series shaped by light and quiet—where image and word meet in rhythm, drawn from the breath of Ardnamurchan’s far west

Clocha ciúin faoi spéir dhubh,
Caisleán ársa ag faire os cionn,
Tost ag labhairt, neart ag fás,
Síoraíocht i ngach fuinneog bhán.

Ór na spéire, solas ag briseadh,
Ar talamh garbh, farraige ag caoineadh,
Clocha agus sruth, iad ag canadh le chéile,
I lár na stoirme, tá neart gan léire.

I lár an fhásaigh, seasann siad go láidir,
Pirimidí cloiche, in aghaidh na gaoithe,
Spéir dhorcha ag caoineadh, ach ní bhriseann siad,
Siombailí na síoraíochta, i dtost na hoíche.

Teach beag sa sneachta, ciúin faoin gheimhreadh,
An ghaoth ag cogar, scéalta na hoíche,
Ach i do chroí, tá tine ag lasadh,
I lár an fhuachta, tá dóchas ag fás.

Sa cheo bog, seasann na bó,
Léiriú sa lochán, ciúin mar scáth,
Éist leis an ghaoth, canann sí go mall,
I gcroí na talún, tá suaimhneas rath.

As Bookbug moves from island to island, he’s enjoying all the Gaelic phrases along the way! Today’s phrase is:
