GO DE SIN DEN TÉ SIN. AKA and see: "Caidé Sin Do'n Té Sin Nach mBaineann Sin Dó," "Caide sin don té sin?," "Cad é sin don té sin?," "What is that to him," "What is that to him whom it does not concern," "What’s that to any one?." Irish, Air (6/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. Fr. John Quinn finds cognate melodies in “What's that to any one?” in Lynch's The Melodies of Ireland (1845-46)[1], albeit in 3/4 time, and in flautist John Clinton's Gems of Ireland (c. 1840), slightly more ornate, under the title “Greatest Diversion under the Sun"[2].
