Chì mi na mòrbheanna
Chì mi na mòrbheanna is a Scottish song that was written in 1856 by Highlander John Cameron (Iain Camshroin), a native of Ballachulish〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sisters On A Journey ) 〕 and known locally in the Gaelic fashion as Iain Rob and Iain Òg Ruaidh.〔Transactions of the Gaelic Society of Inverness, vol. 49, Sgeul O Ghleann Baile Chaoil, Eoghan Mac a' Phì, 1975〕 He worked in the slate quarries before moving to Glasgow where he was engaged as a ship's broker. He became the Bard of the Glasgow Ossianic Society〔Highland News,26 Nov. 1898〕 and also Bard to Clan Cameron. He returned to carry on a merchant's business along with his elder brother and to cultivate a small croft at Taigh a' Phuirt, Glencoe, in his beloved Highlands. Other songs and odes〔Typographia Scoto-Gadelica ed. by Donald MacLean, 1915. John Grant, 31 George IV Bridge, Edinburgh〕 appeared in The Oban Times and in various song books.〔Songs of Gaelic Scotland, Anne Lorne Gillies. Birlinn, 2005〕 He was buried in St. Munda's Isle in Loch Leven. Wreaths of oak leaves and ivy covered the bier〔The Oban Times, 26 Nov. 1898〕
The song is a longing for home and, with its wistful, calming melody and traditional ballad rhythms, is often used as a lullaby. A Gaelic arrangement of the song was recorded on The Rankin Family's debut album (1989). The song was also played during the funeral of John F. Kennedy.
This song is commonly known in English as "The Mist-Covered Mountains of Home," and under that title it has been recorded by many artists, including John Renbourn, Mark Knopfler, Johnny Cunningham, Nightnoise (at the time ''including'' Johnny Cunningham) and Quadriga Consort.
