The song is on the Bothy Band's After Hours. It is so beautiful. Thank you very much in advance. Again, sorry if it's right there and I am missing it. |

It seems to have been altered by professional performers who have recorded it widely in recent years. See also this discussion: Lyr Add: THE BONNIE BLUE-EYED LASSIE Irish and Scottish texts posted by John Moulden, with very useful notes; the only two versions found in tradition, it appears. |
