There is another "Druimionn Donn Dilis" in Donal O'Sullivan's 'Songs of the Irish', p. 143. James Dick's 'Songs of Robert Burns' quoted a verse or two of another version said to have been translated from Gaelic by Samuel Fergusson, (c 1850?) but I haven't been able to find Ferguson's full text, in spite of searching through every thing I could find by Ferguson and some collections with songs by Ferguson in the Library of Congress.
