about

A song inspired by the life of one of the Isle of Man’s most important cultural icons, Mona Douglas.

Composed by Aalin Clague, she writes:
"I took the words for Dub ny h'Ollagh from a Mona Douglas poem of that name. I loved her romantic description of a lonely watering hole where the seasons and animals played, with no mortal witness, save those 'who know the secret ways of woods and stream.' The song is intercut with sections of a cow calling tune from the Mona Douglas collection."

This song was first released as a part of 'Mona's Isle: The Legacy of Mona Douglas' in 2017.
