Back to Maid that Tends the Goats (The)
MAID THAT TENDS THE GOATS, THE (Nighean donn nan gabhar). Scottish, Air or Slow Strathspey. A Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part: AABB (Gow/Repository, O'Farrell). Gow (1802) remarks: "Supposed very Ancient." The tune was also printed by James Aird in his 6th collection (1803). Thompson, in his Scottish Airs (1805), stripped Robert Burns original tune for his song "Ca' the Yowes" and substituted instead the melody for "Maid that Tends the Goats."
