QUIZ: Can you name these traditional Irish songs from just one lyric?

Jamie Concannon

If you can correctly name all 15 of these Irish songs, you are a credit to this country.

Ireland is renowned for a great many things, none more so than music. We’ve produced some of the most beautifully crafted lyrics and melodies you’ll ever hear, and it’s perfectly acceptable to belt them out at just about any social gathering.

That really is something to be proud of. Bands like The Dubliners, The Pogues and The Chieftans will most certainly always be part of our culture.

So to see just how many of these you would be able to name based on one line, we’ve come up with the quiz below.

Simply take a look at the lyrics we’ve chosen, and type in the name of any song you recognise.

Good luck!
