SONG OF VICTORY (Abhran Buadha). AKA and see "Planxty O'Rourke (1)." Irish, Air (6/8 time). D Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Joyce): ABC (Complete Collection). "This tune which Mr. [Francis] Hogan [of South Lodge, Brenormore, near Carrick-on-Suir] copied from a MS. is a very beautiful Planxty, evidently composed by Carolan. I do not believe it has ever seen the light before now" [P.W. Joyce]. The tune is not related, apparently, to the melodies "Owen O'Rourke" or "Planxty O'Rourke (2)."
Carolan researcher Donal O'Sullivan concluded Joyce was correct in his attribution of the tune, although Joyce's title is not the original one, which O'Sullivan found with the tune in one of the notebooks of Irish collector William Forde (i.e. "Planxty O'Rourke"). O'Sullivan thought the subject of the "Planxty O'Rourke" was probably Owen O'Rourke (d. 1728), head of the O'Rourke clan, of Tarmon in the parish of Innismagrath, "the last of the hereditary Princes of Breffni who lived in any opulence."
