I’ve been listening to a lot of Celtic/Irish folk radio [www.liveIreland.com] and a band came on titled ‘Dervish’. So I looked it up and learned something new.
der·vish
1. A member of any of various Muslim ascetic orders, some of which perform whirling dances and vigorous chanting as acts of ecstatic devotion.
2. One that possesses abundant, often frenzied energy: "[She] is a dervish of unfocused energy, an accident about to happen" (Jane Gross).
