Tune properties and standard notation
CAILÍN NA GRUAIGE DOINNE (The Girl with the Brown Hair). Irish, Slow Air (4/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The song begins:
Ar bhantaibh an tSróil sea d'fhagas mo stór,
'S a maithrín ag gleo gan dabht léi.
'D taobh grá ' thabhairt dom shórt sa d'fhánaí gan treoir,
Gan cairne buí óir i gcabhair dom.
'S í an bháb mhiochair modhail [mhodúil] ' chuir bláth ar mo sceol,
'S is páiste bhí óg gan dabht í
'S nach breá deas mo shórt ag geáitseáil ar bord,
Le cailín na gruaige doinne.
