Back to Hymn to the Saviour


HYMN TO THE SAVIOUR (Laoidh an t-Slanuighear). AKA and see "Ailleagan." Scottish, Slow Air (4/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. "This air has Gaelic words of various merit, and is called by Mr. Campbell, in his Albyn's Anthology, the 'Ailleagan', a name he also bestows on another air of the few he exhibits; but the best Gaelic poem to it seen by the editor, is a hymn to the Saviour, by Dugald Buchanan, a native of Rannoch" (Fraser).
