GUEST,Claire Tune Req: Silent O Moyle tune origin? (11) Tune Req: Silent O Moyle tune origin? 27 Sep 04

Hi,
I am singing Silent O Moyle for a Bloomsday celebration and I wonder if anyone knows the origin of the melody. There is lots of information about the lyrics, which were written by Thomas Moore, but I can't find any reference to the tune except that it is traditional. I love the song and any insight would be very appreciated.

Thanks,
Claire
