Bruach Na Carraige Baine - Translation?

Does anyone know what this title means, and how it is pronounced?

# Posted on March 9th 2004 by chubbysparrow

I may have found an answer to my own question - it appears to mean, At the Brink of the White Rocks, or The Edge of the White Rock. Still not sure how to pronounce it though. Also it appears to exist in both the Irish and Scottish traditions - I wonder which came first? Is the title Irish or Scots Gaelic?

Serenity and a day

What a great tune; so serene!
And a great way to give my head a rest after hours of readin' an' hummin' jigs and reels and reels and jigs on this site! (we'd call it a day if we weren't way into the night now)
THis is Music!
