Jack - I wrote this tune down from the singing of Andie Fraser in Achiltibuie in 1987. As far as I know it hadn't been published before. But it's always been common practice for people in the Gaeltachd to put new words to existing tunes - so who knows where is came from?!

GUEST.MacIver - How amazing that Mordaidh Sheorais was your great, great Grandad. Yes, it's a wonderful song. Mordaidh sounds like a great character.
