Sorry don’t know the names of the tunes ’cos I bought it as a download, I think the waltz track 7 is Lake Banook correct me if I’m wrong
Brilliant album as Danu always are!!

According to their website, track 7 is Caisleán Rathanáin/Mairseáil na Conrach

I’ve added the tune names.

This is a good album, very good musicians. 🙂

The Willow Tree

Down by the river there’s a tall willow tree,
Who weeps all night for you and me.
And it’s lay down low, my love.

Chorus:
And it’s lay you down, my own true love.
The shadows are falling and night has come,
And it’s lay down low, my love.

Under the branches of the brown thorn tree,
The wild bird is watching over Lios Na Sí
And it’s lay down low, my love.

On Lake Derravaragh there’s a white-feathered swan,
Who sings of sorrow the whole night long.
And it’s lay down low, my love.

The moon is moving over Poll na Brón
Where two lovers are lying on their bed of stone.
And it’s lay down low, my love.

Down by the river there’s a tall willow tree,
Who weeps all night for you and me.
And it’s lay down low, my love.

The song was written by Pádraigín Ní Uallacháin for her album ‘An Dara Craiceann / Beneath the Surface’. I’ve heard a few great versions of this!
