THY FAIR BOSOM (Do ucd geal). AKA and see "Night closed around", "After the Battle". Irish, Air (3/4 time, "with feeling"). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The two alternate titles come from Thomas Moore's song set to the air of "Thy Fair Bosom" (the first line: "Night closed around the conqueror's way"). Researcher Nicholas Carolan unearthed a version of the melody in the c. 1787 music manuscript collection of Patrick O'Neill (1765-1832) under the title "Buachaill ban (An)." Francis O'Neill wrote in his Irish Folk Music: A Fascinating Hobby (1910, p. 132) that the air was a variant of "O Arranmore Loved Arranmore," but Paul de Grae does not find the relationship to be that close[1].
