Thread Name: Lyr Add: When Love is Kind (Thomas Moore)
Subject: RE: LYR. ADD. When Love is Kind
Hi Joe, my favorite of the Thomas Moore songs is Silent O Moyle, which is obscure, and I have not been able to find any book with the music. I learned it from an old record. I'm sure you will notice lots of classics of his once you start looking such as The Minstrel Boy. I also like The Pretty Girl Milking Her Cow (Cailin deas Cruite na Mbo, 'colleen das cruthen na mo') ... there are many. I notice you found a poetry site for Moore lyrics in Toronto, but I haven't been able to connect to it yet. I was pleased to see that you found that source. Alice
