DAWNING OF THE DAY [4], THE (Fáinne Geal an Lae). Irish, Air or March (2/4 or 4/4 time). E Flat Major (Stanford/Petrie): D Major (Cranitch, Tubridy): G Major (Ó Canainn). Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (Cranitch, Ó Canainn, Tubridy): AB (Stanford/Petrie). The melody is within the span of an octave. A variant is "Oh Johnny dearest Johnny, what dyed your hands and cloaths?" Petrie's air compares closely (save key) with that in Joyce's Old Irish Folk Music and Songs, No. 774 (see "Dawning of the Day (2) (The)".
Source for notated version: "From Kate Keane, Dec., 1854" [Stanford/Petrie].
