Wow! when I made this post I really thought that I would be hearing from those ready to pass out the "hanging offense". The song is Seacht nDolas na Maighdine Muirre (The seven sorrows of Mary). I only have four of the sorrows...maybe she isn't so sorrowful anymore. I have only changed a few notes of the tune, not the words, and have been to a Gaelic teacher to make sure that my pronunciation is correct. Thank you again for all the encouragment...not that I plan to go out changing tunes as a practice!
