Someone above mentioned "Ned of the Hill." When I was studying Irish with a native speaker in 1976 she gave me the words to this song in Irish to learn, starting with "Ce he sin amuigh." She never gave an author. so I have always assumed that this was a traditional Irish song and "Ned of the Hill" a translation. The tune is the same. Does anyone know any differently.

The one that caught me was "Watercress O." I was disappointed that it wasn't trad.
