The St. Patrick's Festival have teamed up with Irish poet Stephen James Smith to create this powerful tribute to modern Ireland.

The poem, written and narrated by Stephen, is titled My Ireland and was written in response to the theme of this year's St. Patrick's Festival - a snapshot of contemporary Ireland. The music in the video was recorded and produced by Colm Mac Con Iomaire and Conor O'Brien, and performed by Saint Sister, Ye Vagabonds and more.
