Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Leanbh mo chroí means 'child of my heart', which is the name of an unrelated jig printed by O'Neill in his Music of Ireland (1903. See "Child of My Heart").

The jig appears under the title "Jackson's Babby" in the c. 1865 Gunn Manuscript collection from County Fermanagh, while the variant "Tanning the Leather" is to be found in the Rice-Walsh manuscript, a collection of music from the repertoire of Jeremiah Breen, a blind fiddler from North Kerry .
