SWEET KATHLEEN MACHREE (Caitilin Dileas Mo Croide). Irish, Air (6/8 time). B Flat Major (Joyce): C Major (O'Neill). Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (O'Neill): AB (Joyce). The song "Sweet Kathleen Machree" was published by Crosby in his Irish Musical Repository (1808, 245). The words begin:
Ye winds and ye waves, bear my sorrows away,
And ye echoes go babble, for nought I can say;
O bear to the ear of sweet Kathlane Machree,
That my thoughts are on her, tho' she thinks not of me.
Och why will you wander like goose leaving gander,
Sweet Kathlane Macree, sweet Kathlane Machree?
Fly all the world over, you'll ne'er find a lover
So constant as me, so constant as me,
Sweet Kathlane Macree, sweet Kathlane Macree.
The air appears as "Paddy Frolic" in Alexander Kinloch's One Hundred Airs (London, c. 1815).
