Mavourneen.
Thanks in advance.



I can't be quite certain of this but I've come across 'a ghra' in a lot of books I've read and as far as I know it means 'my love'.

The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language: Fourth Edition:

Irish Gaelic: mo mhuirnín

mo = my
mhuirnín = darling, diminutive of muirn, delight (from Old Irish, tumult, revels)

a gràdh = my love

Mise, le meas.
