If you copy the ABC text and paste it in the ConcertinaNet Tune-o-tron it will generate a midi file and sheet music.

There are lyrics to different versions of the song in the above thread, too.

Lovely tune, thanks for reminding me of it. We don't get the Glenroe programme in Oz at present. (I did watch it, really. :-) I got caught up in the characters and plots.)
