A Good Next Step - Learn Scottish Gaelic

"Old Wife of the Mill Dust" is a traditional Scottish folk tune, known in Gaelic as Cailleach an Dùdain, which refers to a mythical or legendary figure. The name translates to "Old Woman of the Mill Dust" and was documented in the Scottish Highlands in the mid-1700s, likely for pipes or fiddle, and became a symbol for the harsh reality of working life, particularly in mills, though it also has roots in earlier traditions #history #culture #music #scotland #bagpipes | Duty Piper
