Thread Name: Lyr/Tune Req: Song for the Mira (A MacGillivray)
Subject: Song for the Mira
Hi,

We recently took a trip to Nova Scotia and saw the Mira River. I recalled a folk song about the Mira and remembered many of the words. I would like to get the complete lyrics. It doesn't seem to be on this database- does anyone have a website with the lyrics.

It starts: Out on the Mira on warm afternoons Old men go fishing with black line and spoon And if they catch nothing they never complain And I wish I was with them again.

I'd hate to teach it to others with the wrong words!

Thanks LIl
