“Demanten på marrsnön (The Diamond in the Snow)” by Sibelius(English translation)A diamond glitters brightly on freshly

fallen snowThere are no tears more brilliant, no

pearls that shimmer so.And filled with secret longing,The diamond’s crystal eye is flashing towards the sunrise,That warms the eastern sky.

It glows wth adoration before those rays so clear

Embracing their reflection andmelting to a tear.

Oh, happy are those lovers who worship what is most high,And sparkle in the sunlightAnd thus adoring die.

“The Ash Grove” (Welsh “Llwyn Onn”) is a traditional Welsh folk song. Thomas Oliphant wrote this English version in the 19th C.

“The Irish Blessing" is often attributed to Saint Patrick, but the author is unknown. The composer is Michael B. Lyne.

“Molly Malone” an Irish ballad much loved by our father, David Peter Dingledy (1919-1988) Sung by David Owen Dingledy. Please join in on the refrain! (First verse)In Dublin’s fair city, where the girls are so prettyI first set my eyes on sweet Molly MaloneAs she wheeled her wheelbarrow through streets wide and narrowCrying, “Cockles and mussels! A-live, a-live O!”(Refrain)A-live, a-live O! A-live, a-live O! Crying, “Cockles and mussels! A-live, a-live O!”

“Goin’ Home” based on the “Largo” theme from Antonin Dvorak’s Symphony No. 9 (From the New

World) It is a favorite of Welsh male choirs.

Goin’ home, goin’ home. I’m agoin’ home;Quiet like, some still day, I’m jes’ goin’ home.

It’s not far, jes’ close by, through an open door;Work all done, care laid by goin’ to fear no more.Mother’s there ‘spectin’ me, father’s waitin’too;Lot’s of folk gather’d there, all the friends I knew,

All the friends I knew.Home, home, I’m goin’ home!

Nothin’ lost, all’s gain, no more fret nor pain,No more stumblin’ on the way, no more longin’ for

the day,Goin’ to roam no more!

Mornin’ star lights the way, res’less dream all done;

Shadows gone, break o’day, real life jes’ begunGoin’ home, goin’ home,

I’m jes’ goin’ home;It’s not far, jes close by, through an open

door.I’m jes’ goin’ home.

Goin’ home.Thanks to the following people that made this concert
