Isle of Inisfree [이니스프리 섬]
Farrelly's "Isle of Innisfree" is a beautiful haunting melody by Irish Composer and Songwriter Dick Farrelly (1916 - 1990). The melody and lyrics express the longing of an Irish emigrant for his native land. It was the main theme of the film "The Quiet Man". [The 1952 movie "The Quiet Man" was set in 1920s Ireland. Sean Thornton (John Wayne), an Irish-born American from Pittsburgh, returns to Ireland to reclaim his family's farm in Innisfree. He meets and falls in love with the fiery spinster Mary Kate Danaher (Maureen O'Hara)] It became a worldwide hit for Bing Crosby in 1952 and continues to enrich the repertoires of many artists; it endures in the hearts of many as one of the great songs of Ireland. |
