History is reflected in the words of folk songs

   zzShepherd Of The Downs - . - A shepherd of the downs being weary of his port - Retired to the hills where he used to resort - In want of refreshment he laid himself down - |: He wanted no riches, nor wealth from the crown. :| - 2. He drank of the cold brook he ate of the tree - Himself he did enjoy from all sorrow was free - He valued no girl be she ever so free - |: No pride nor ambition he valued no care. :| - - 3. As he was a-walking one evening so clear - A heavenly voice sounded sweet in his ear - He stood like a post not one step could he mov - |: He knew not what ailed him but thought it was love. :| - - 4. He beheld a young damsel a fair modest bride - She had something amiss and disguised in her face - Disguised in her face she unto him did say - |: How now, master shepherd, how came you this way? :|

 
 

What has been said about Irish Folk Bands.      

Quotations about irish folk bands and their instruments crop up throughout literature. Here are some quotations:-

Folksongs must be dressed to be taken from the fields to the city. In urban attire, however, they are awkward and uncomfortable. Their apparel must be cut in a fashion that will not hinder their breathing. Whether for chorus or for piano, the accompaniment should always be of such a nature as to make up for the lost fields and village. ~ Zoltãn Kodãlv
