This is a traditional Irish lullaby/dandling song collected in County Waterford, Ireland in the late 1930s. In it, there are two versions of the same tune; one is a fast, rhythmic version with captures the pulsating, vibrant rhythmic energy of Irish dance music; the other is a slow rendition which is distinguished by ornamental variation and free tempo.
