GUEST,duine-saor Lyr Req: Mo Ghile Mear (from Sting/Chieftains) (48) RE: Mo Ghile Mear 21 Dec 03

a charaidh,

A PS to my earlier postings re: this song. Perhaps those among you who have done comparative music have already noticed this, but this song is also the basis of several later tunes - a Jacobite song in English; "When First he Landed on Our Strand" (which I have a few verses to), and Caroline Oliphant (Lady Nairne)'s famed retro-Jacobite song "Over the Sea to Skye."It is also the air to the Gaelic and English versions of "Mairi's Wedding."
