Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Kimiad, by Alan Stivell
Right you are, Jonathan Hill. Son Ar Chistr (or ev chistr laou) is used in English for Willie's Lady. I believe it was Ray Fisher who first borrowed the tune, and I believe it was Stivell she borrowed it from. I would not be surprised if she were also the singer behind using An Alarc'h for The Twa Corbies.
