Carmina Gadelica

"Carmina Gadelica" is a collection of Scottish Gaelic prayers, blessings, and hymns compiled by the scholar Alexander Carmichael in the late 19th century. It captures the spiritual traditions and folk wisdom of the Gaelic-speaking communities in Scotland, reflecting their connection to nature, daily life, and the divine. The title translates to "Songs of the Gael." This work is significant for preserving cultural heritage and offering insights into the lives and beliefs of the Scottish people, making it an important resource for both linguists and those interested in spirituality and folklore.
