Due to erosion of the land, people were forced to carry seaweed from the shorelines along the barren West Coast of Ireland; this was then allowed to rot, and was eventually used to plant vegeables. The text of this song, here with original music by Michael McGlynn, may have been sung while the seaweed was being gathered.
