Back to Dairymaid (3) (The)
DAIRY MAID [3], THE (Bhanarach dhonn a'chruidh). AKA and see "The Brown Milkmaid." Scottish, Slow Air (3/8 time). G Minor (Fraser): A Minor (Johnson). Standard tuning (fiddle). ABB' (Fraser): AABB' (Johnson). "A very imperfect set, indeed, of this melody pervades a good part of the country. In Burns' Reliques, published by Mr. Cromek, there is a song, called 'The Banks of the Devon,' said to be to this air, of which the editor was ignorant; but it is observed that Burns acquired the air from a young lady in Inverness,--doubtless from one who had similar access with the editor to the compilations of his progenitor and Mr. Fraser of Culduthel" (Fraser).
