Tune Annotations

Tune Annotations:	'''ÓRÓ, A THAIDHG, A GHRÁ''' (Oro, Tim, my love). AKA and see "[[Late Home at Night]]," "[[Peeler Jig (The)]]," "[[Barney's Goat]]," "[[Skin the Peeler]](s)," "[[Swaggering Jig (2) (The)]]," "[[Hardiman the Fiddler (2)]]." Irish, Slip Jig. E Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. See also the closely related "[[Butterfly (3) (The)]]." The title in the mid-19th century James Goodman Manuscripts in the library of Trinity College, Dublin, is "[[Skin the Peeler]]." Breathnach says "[[Late Home at Night]]" is another name for the tune from County Kerry, and gives a song to it from Connemara (collected from Máire Áine Ní Dhonnchadha of Knock): <blockquote> '' 's óró, a Thaidhg, a ghrá,''<br> '' 's óró a Thaidhg, a chumainnín,''<br> '' 's óró a Thaidhg, a Thaidhg,''<br> '' 's óró a Thaidhg, a chumainnín,''<br> ''D'éirigh Tadhg aréir;''<br> ''Chuaigh sé ag fiach na ngirríacha;''<br> ''D'éirigh Máire ina dhéigh, ''<br> '' 's lean sí é sna bonnachaí.''<br> ''(And oro, Tim, my love''<br> ''and oro, Tim, my little darling,''<br> ''and oro, Tim, Tim,''<br> ''and oro, Tim, my little darling.''<br> ''Tim got up last night;''<br> ''he went hunting the hares;''<br> ''Mary got up after him,''<br> ''And she followed in his footsteps.'') .... [Trans.: Paul de Grae]<br> </blockquote> Breathnach printed another version of the slip jig in his '''Ceol Since na hÉirreann vol. 4''' (1996, No. 30) as "Port na Buaiceála/[[Swaggering Jig (2) (The)]]."
