Subject: RE: Huntingtower: Lyrics provided
Here is the tune in Tonic Sol-fa as found in a very old book (see the thread "Old Scottish Song Book") I have of Scottish songs:

|d:-.d:d:r|m:-:r.d:-. |
|d:-.d:m:s|d>:-.t:l.s:-. |
|l:-.t:d>:l|s:-.m:m.r
:d|f:-.f:m:s|r:-.m:r.d:-||

The words are almost the same as above (verse 3 has ava, not ava', verse 4 has guidman etc.)

For an explanation of Tonic Sol-fa see the thread "Sol-fa notation".

As you'll see from the "Old Scottish Song Book" thread I'm looking for information about my book. Please check out this thread.

Cheers,
Alan
