One by one they were all becoming shades. Better pass boldly into that other world, in the full glory of some passion, than fade and wither dismally with age.

Dubliners

لقد أصبحوا جميعًا ظلالًا واحدًا تلو الآخر. من الأفضل أن يمروا بجرأة إلى ذلك العالم الآخر، في مجد بعض الشغف، بدلاً من التلاشي والذبول بشكل كئيب مع تقدم العمر.

The light music of whisky falling into glasses made an agreeable interlude.

In one letter that he had written to her then he had said: “Why is it that words like these seem to me so dull and cold? Is it because there is no word tender enough to be your name?”

Dubliners by James Joyce

"The Irish Rover," a classic Irish folk song, was given a unique twist in 1987 when The Pogues teamed up with The Dubliners for a legendary performance.

The song tells the tale of a grand ship sailing into disaster, mixing humor with a bit of Irish mischief. But in that 1987 version, The Pogues added their own signature energy, turning the traditional folk tune into something that felt fresh yet deeply rooted in Irish heritage.

Imagine the energy of a lively pub session—where the music is fast, fun, and full of character. That’s the magic of "The Irish Rover." ☘

Every time we hear it, it’s a reminder of the storytelling tradition that has been at the heart of Irish culture for generations. A song full of spirit and stories, just like Ireland itself.

"Whiskey in the Jar" with the Dubliners and the Pogues

"Whiskey in the Jar" is a famous Irish traditional song, set in the southern mountains of Ireland, the tale of a highwayman who, after robbing a military or government official, is betrayed by a woman, and is one of the most widely performed traditional Irish songs. It has been recorded by numerous professional artists since the 1950s. http://thisdrinkinglife.com/hell-raiser-7-shane-macgowan/

'She was walking on before him so lightly and so erect that he longed to run after her noiselessly, catch her by the shoulders and say something foolish and affectionate into her ear. She seemed to him so frail that he longed to defend her against something and then to be alone with her. Moments of their secret life together burst like stars upon his memory.'

- James Joyce, The Dead

He was not sure what idea he wished to express but the thought that a poetic moment had touched him took life within him like an infant hope.

He lived at a little distance from his body, regarding his own acts with doubtful side-glances. He had an odd autobiographical habit which led him to compose in his mind from time to time a short sentence about himself containing a subject in the third person and a verb in the past tense.
