Thread Name: Lyr Req: Fairy Haunts
Subject: Lyr Req: Fairy Haunts
Just read a post on IRTRAD about a book called Moffat's "Minstrelsy of Ireland" and a song therein called "Fairy Haunts". As I understand, it is to the air of "Jackson's Morning Brush"; words of "Fairy Haunts" seem to be attributed to one Joseph Fitzgerald, from "Old Songs of Ireland" (London, 1843).

I'd appreciate any info on either book, and of course the lyrics to "Fairy Haunts".

Cheers,
Michael
