STOCAINNEAN DAOIMEAN (Checkered Stockings). AKA - "Checkered Stockings," "Haidh-O-Haidrum," Scottish, Air (4/4 time) or Strathspey. E Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part. A popular puirt a beul (mouth music) tune.

Haio hairum, stocainnean daoimean,
Haio hairum, stocainnean daoimean,
Haio hairum, stocainnean daoimean,
'S iad bhios grin anns na lòrns.

The song is from the Isle of Lewis, sung from an independent woman's point of view and details why she finds men unsuitable for her.
