I sang this in Spiddal Galway Gaeltacht in 1957/8 when I was 8 years old so it obviously was not written by na cassidys. Some of the words are different . An bhfaca tu mo Sheamuisin Mo mhuirnean og mo bhuachaillin An bhfaca tu mo Sheamuisin Ag dul ar sios an mbothar
They have ‘mo stoirin’ for ‘mo mhuirnean’ and ‘is e gabhail sios an bothar’
I wonder also if they have put an extra verse in. I’d love to have the original song.
