Much struck BTW to similarity of title to -
Ho Ro Mo Nighean Donn Bhoidheach -
which is the Gaelic title that appears on youTube for the Rankin Family's beautiful rendering of the Scottish song usually called in English 'Ho-Ro My Nut-Brown Maiden' ~ also a fine pipe tune, company march of the Scots Guards, and one of the "Tunes Of Glory" mentioned by Alec Guinness's Highland colonel in the film of that name as he plans his predecessor's military funeral.
