Hi

After having sung this last night at a Sydney folk club, (well Alan sang and I accompanied him on flute.....) we now have some more info. It actually started out as a Welsh folk tale, which was then adapted into other cultures and varied accordingly.

Apparently Thomas Moore set it to music. If anyone has any more details please let me know.
