Seamus O'Brion and James Masten perform an Irish love ballad of unknown origins. The tune, which is in the mixolydian mode, was transcribed by Herbert Hughes. The modern lyrics were half-composed and half-collected by Padraic Colum. The song was first published in 1909, but some claim it dates back to medieval times.
