Aha!
A topic I've been meaning to ask about myself! I found this marvelous, wonderful song when someone sent me Christy Moore's recording of it, and it's haunted me ever since... Does anyone know anything more about the origin of the song, what it's about, if there is more of it, etc? A friend told me he touhgt it was traditional, but now you list an author... Help! It's such a beatiful piece of a story, I can't help but want to know more...
