It a poem first, written by Henry Nutter, who came from Lancashire, in the nineteenth It endured the years and cultural changes, until it was recently set to music by Gerry from Oldham, Lanes, from whose singing I learned it. It's a lovely landscape of the between a man and his woman, which I have set on the graceful slopes of the Comeragh in the County Waterford." - Danny Doyle
