Back to Nancy the Pride of the West
NANCY THE PRIDE OF THE WEST. AKA and see "Ar Eirinn ni Neosfainn Ce Hi," "For Ireland I'd Not Say (Tell) Her Name [1]," "The Melodious Little Lis of Bruff." Irish, Air (3/4 time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. "Dr. Petrie published the Kilkenny version of this air in his Ancient Music of Ireland (p. 99). The setting I give here from memory as I heard the old people of Limerick sing it in my young days, is different, and is more simple and more purely vocal. There is a beautiful song in Irish to this air, which I published set to the music in my Irish Music and Songs (p. 22)--Ar Eirinn ni 'neosainn ce hi (For Ireland I'd Not Tell Her Name). Sometimes the air is known by this name: and it is also often called 'Binn lisin aerach a Bhrogha' (The Melodious Littel Lis of Bruff, Co. Limerick) from a song about that place" (Joyce).
