Jessica McKean

Jessica McKean lives on a dairy farm in a small town called Lifford in the north of Ireland, surrounded by fields, cows and beautiful countryside.

Her Junior Eurovision experience won’t be the first time she’s taken to the stage, having won a singing competition at her first Fèis (Gaelic arts and culture festival) aged just 3!

The young performer also featured on RTÉ’s Donncha’s Two Talented singing I Love You Honey by Patsy Cline, and has won numerous competitions, cups and medals since.

The stage is where Jessica feels most at home, and when she’s not singing she enjoys arts and crafts, piano lessons, football, and gymnastics - plus spending time watching loads of YouTube Shorts.

Lyrics of Aisling

Verse 1
Chuala mé
Guthanna sa ghaoth
Treoraithe ag na réalta
Faoi scáth na hoíche

Sheol mé
Trasna na mara
Bhí sé cosúil, le’Aisling
Do mo thabhairt go tír
Smaragaid

Bridge
Chonaic mé teach solais
Do mo threorú isteach
Do m’fháiltiú ar ais

Chorus
An aisling, i mo thír lán
S’é an caisleán óir
Le seomra ann do gach duine


Verse II
An bhanríon
Gléasta i mbán
Thóg sí mo lámh
‘Is chan sí amhrán dom
Chan sí amhrán
In san seomra óir
In ndiaidh na cath
Tagann síochán

Chorus
An aisling, i mo thír lán
S’é an chaisleán óir
Le seomra ann do gach duine
Faoin ngrian ‘faoin ghealach
Agus scáthanna na sléibhte
S’é mo aisling, s’é mo aisling

Break
Ag fanacht leis an rí
Shíl mé go bfhaca mé an banshee
(Ná bí scantraithe)

Is mise an solas
Do do threorú isteach
Do d’fháiltiú ar ais

Chorus
An aisling, i mo thír lán
S’é an chaisleán óir
Le seomra ann do gach duine
Faoin ngrian ‘faoin ghealach
Agus scáthanna na sléibhte
Sé mo aisling, s’é mo aisling
Verse 1
I heard
Voices in the wind
Lead by the stars
Under the shadow of the night
Guide me
Over the sea
It was like a dream
Taking me to the emerald land

Bridge
I saw a lighthouse
Leading me in
Welcoming me back

Chorus
The dream in my plentiful land
It’s the golden castle
With a room for everyone

Verse II
The queen
Wearing white
She took my hand
And she sang a song
She sang a song for me
In the golden room
After every battle
Peace comes

Chorus
The dream in my plentiful land
It’s the golden castle
With a room for everyone
Under the sun and the moon
And the shadows of the mountains
It’s my vision it’s my dream

Break
Waiting for the king
I thought I saw the banshee
Don’t be scared
I am the light
Guiding you in
Welcoming you back

Chorus
The dream in my plentiful land
It’s the golden castle
With a room for everyone
Under the sun and the moon
And the shadows of the mountains
It’s my vision it’s my dream
