Subject: RE: Oro Se Do Bheatha Bhaile
sorry, the chorus and 2nd verse should have looked like this

Oro you're welcome home You're welcome above all others Oro you're welcome home You've been away for a season

My bitter grief that I'm not seeing If I only lived for a week Young Charles and a thousand warriors Struggling with the French.

The tune is very similar to the P.Pearse one, but a little slower. Speeded up it could be considered similar to the Drunken Sailor.
