Lilting or port a béil (mouth music) is an ancient art of singing, using meaningless words, in the keys and notes of airs, jigs, reels or hornpipes. It is often referred to as 'Diddle lee eye ' music. Competitions are held at music festivals or 'fleadhs' annually for champion lilters.
The rhythm in the song is the most important aspect and the lyrics are only of secondary importance – Lilting can be in the following forms:
Diddl-e-I-di-diddle-e-I-di Diddle-e-I-di-day-dum.
Toor a loo rah loo -Toor a loo rah lay.
Da dum de - da dum de -didle e eye.
