A Smuggler's Song by Rudyard Kipling, set to music by Peter Bellamy. Peter Bellamy; A Smuggler’s Song is one of Kipling’s best loved poems. It presents a somewhat romantic view of the cut-throat Sussex smugglers of the Eighteenth Century. The melody is derived from that of The White Cockade, a song which survives in the repertoire of a family in a village in which Kipling himself lived for a period: the Copper family of Rottingdean, Sussex. (Mainly Norfolk)
Smuggler’s Song / Devoran Smugglers; Ralph Dunstan collected this “Smuggler’s Song or Shanty” from Capt. T. Collett of Polglaze, Perrancoombe, 25 December 1929, who learnt it from “Capp’n Jacky”, a bargee working from Devoran, in 1864, who was then about 70. (Mainly Norfolk)
The Smuggler; Masefield includes it in his A Sailor’s Garland. (Mainly Norfolk)
Poitin;
Paddy Boyle; The Tinker's Poitín. I found this song on the Irish Traditional Music Archives sung by Annie Hirrell. The earliest recording I can find is on a 1969 album called 'The Leprechaun' by an Irish/Canadian folk group called 'Sullivan's Gypsies'; on the album they give the writing credit to a Don McLennan.
