Just one other minor query. One of those things which has been ticking over for some time.

In my choir we sing a 1942 TTBB arrangement, and "Bheir me o" is given as the gaelic, but the pronunction is given as "Vair me o" which is what we sing. But in the folk clubs it is sung "BHEIR me o" Is the old sheet music correct --for 1942/for now?
