Be Thou My Vision
"Be Thou My Vision" () is a traditional hymn from Ireland. The most well known English version, with some minor variations, was translated by Eleanor Hull and published in 1912. In 1919, the lyrics were set to the tune of the Irish folk tune "Slane", to which the song is sung to this day, both in English and Irish. The song dates from at least the eighth century, though it has often been attributed to the sixth-century Irish Christian poet Saint Dallan.〔(Be Thou My Vision ) at Cyberhymnal〕
==History==
The original Old Irish text, "Rop tú mo Baile" is often attributed to Saint Dallán Forgaill in the 6th century.〔 The text had been a part of Irish monastic tradition for centuries before its setting to music.〔(Songs and Hymns entry )〕 It was translated from Old Irish into English by Mary Elizabeth Byrne, M.A., in ''Ériu'' (the journal of the School of Irish Learning), in 1905. The English text was first versified by Eleanor Hull, in 1912, and is now the most common text used.〔"The New Methodist Hymn Book Illustrated", John Telford (Epworth Press, London, 1934): This Old Irish poem was translated by Mary E. Byrne M.A. of the University of Ireland, an Irish Research worker to the Board of Intermediate Education. It was versified by Miss Eleanor Henrietta Hull, founder of the Irish Text Society, its secretary in 1899 and sometimes President of the Irish Literary Society of London and author of books on Ireland.〕
