'''BOY'S LAMENT FOR HIS DRAGON, THE'''. AKA and see "[[Farewell to Aberdeen]]," "[[Seventy Second's Farewell to Aberdeen (The)]]," "[[Royal Highlanders' Farewell to Aberdeen (The)]]." Scottish, Pipe March. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Composed by William MacKay. 'Dragon' is thought to mean a kite, and Anslem Lingnau points out that in German both the fearsome mythical beast and the flying toy are called "drachen." The melody appears to be earliest published as "[[Royal Highlanders' Farewell to Aberdeen (The)]]" in Pipe Major William Ross's 1885 collection.
