It is widely accepted down here in South Kerry that Dan Courtney living 8 miles south of Cahirciveen composed this song. the last verse was changed , Dan originally wrote And when i take my long last sleep and death shall come to me then lay me down by that old town beneath the hills and sea Ill take my sleep in those green fields where first my life began where the Boys of barr na Sraide went hunting for the wren. A new book called Songs of Iveragh has just been published , a no of Dans other songs have now been published. www.binneas.com Dan Courtney / Donal O Curnain ( 1888 - 1963)
