Back to Fly Not Yet
FLY NOT YET. AKA and see "Hugh Kelly," "Planxty O'Kelly." Irish, Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (O'Farrell): AA'BB' (Kerr). O'Farrell gives the provenance as Irish. The melody is O'Carolan's "Hugh Kelly" or "Planxty Kelly," set to words by Thomas Moore (1779-1852), published in his Irish Melodies, vol. 1 (1808). The song begins:
Fly not yet, 'tis just the hour,
When pleasure, like the midnight flower
That scorns the eye of vulgar light,
Begins to bloom for sons of night,
And maids who love the moon.
Kerr (Merry Melodies), vol. 3; No. 278, p. 30. O'Farrell (Pocket Companion, vol. III), c. 1808; p. 21.
