I have the Canadian version credited to her in a circa 1967 (that's our centennial year) hardcover called "Song to a Seagull" but it doesn't say which book. The local library has a publication of her collected songs and it's in there too, but their online catalogue is down at the moment so I can't get the title right now.

Mooh: George, DaveTAM and others can probably fill you in better, but a French-rooted tune would be no surprise to me given the history of Nova Scotia. Francophones who had made homes and lives there were expelled to make room for settlers sent by the British Empire. Spoils of a European war. That's how there came to be so many Acadians, aka Cajuns, in Louisiana. Yet another diaspora in the history of the world.
