The thread about the meaning of 'dressed in yellow' (or lack of meaning) put a worm in my ear for the song "Flowers of the Valley" which has one knight dressed in green, one red, one yellow. Lovely melody.

All I know is the Fureys and Clancys recorded it. Is there something else known about it, if it was a 20th century composition, who was the author?
