I'm working on the Gatty Ms. collection of folk songs collected in South Yorkshire in 1907. I've got a beautiful tune collected from a gypsy living in the area at that time. Sadly there are no lyrics for this song. The melody is entitled 'seven links to my chain' but this may only be a phrase in the original lyric and the song may more popularly be known by some other title.
Can anyone help?

Found it thanks to Gavin Davenport - the song is 'Erin's Lovely Home'

I think I'll close this thread to avoid confusion. Please post in the Erin's Lovely Home thread. Thanks.
