MartinRyan	Rocks of Bawn - Meaning? (138* d)	RE: Rocks of Bawn - Meaning?	20 Jul 15
Yes it does, mayomick - Dineen gives "bádhún" as an alternative spelling for that "yard" sense of "bán". The effect would probably be to make the sound "baw-oon" or such. I've never heard it, myself. "white rocks" doesn't make sense in this context - though , oddly, it does turn up in another song family i.e. Bruach na Carraige Báine"/"Banks of Carriage Bawne" Regards
