GUEST,Donalldubh	Lyr Req: Emigrant song sung in Donegal (12)	RE: Lyr Req: Emigrant song sung in Donegal	15 Apr 12
Owen, I don't believe I have ever gotten such a rude response on this forum. The book which I have at hand reads as follows: "In Donegal there is a song which was traditionally sung to those who were going overseas, and there is a legend in that same county that the many seagulls wheeling over the shore are the souls of Irish emigrants, returned at last to their homeland." – Valley Irish, pg. 4, Carol Bennett, juniper books, 1983, Renfrew, Ontario I would assume that this song is likely in the Irish, and is obviously not a new composition.
