pelie nordwall...scttish in origin.
@@brucecollins4729 No. It's a traditional irish song. The macaronic form (mixed english verses with irish chorous ) probably places it somewhere in the early 19th century. If an older all irish verison ever existed then the song is probably early 18th century. Sometime after the siege of Limerick in 1691.
This is hinted at in the following lyrics in a longer version of the song.
But now my love had gone to France,
to try his fortune there to advance.
If he e’er come back, ’tis but a chance.
Is go dté tú mo mhuirnin slán
After the defeat of the catholic irish defenders of Limerick thousands of the defeated troops were allowed to sail to france to form the Irish Brigade of the Frence Army.
@@tonymolloy6165 it,s an adaptation of a poem by andrew lang..type in.....dickie macphalion by andrew lang ....born 1844 died 1912. that,s why the origin of the sang is "unclear" in ireland. you might want to look up that other irish sang ..doloman....talen from the scottish sang ....cutting ferns. there are more.
We've had this out before.
"Jonny has gone for a soldier" is an american song based on Siúil a Rún. It was popular during the american war of independence in 1775, That is way before your Andrew Lang..

Now that's enough
@@tonymolloy6165 did you look up ...dickie macphalion by andrew lang.......because it,s on you tube does not make it irish. did you look up ..doloman....look up eileen aroon also.....look up suill aruin wikipedia....it states the origins are unclear..that,s because it,s no irish...
Beautiful rendition. Can any viewers tell me how the Peter Paul and Mary version in the 1960s evolved from this ancient classic?
Ok,, it's complicated 😀.
The original song Siúil a Rún ( sometimes sung as Siúil a Ghrá in Ireland ) is a traditional irish ashling lament, where a woman laments for her love who has gone off to france to fight for the french army. The surviving version with mixed english verses and the irish chorous is probably early 19th century. There probably was an earlier all irish version possibly very late 17th or early 18th century but it has been lost. This would place it sometime after the irish defeat at the Siege of Limerick in 1691, After the defeat the english allowed thousands of irish troops to leave Ireland for France where they formed the Irish Brigade. This is known in irish history as The Flight of the Wild Geese.
Now for America, The original song probably came to america with irish immigrants but a new version with different lyrics may have come with irish troops in the british army before the War of Independence or may be a local American version. This version called "Jonny has gone for a soldier" or sometimes "Buttermilk Hill" and was popular during the war of Independence. The existence of this version as early as 1765 suggests the older origin for the irish song is correct.
You can listen to it here sung by James Taylor:

Now PP&M took some of the lyrics from "Jonny has gone for a soldier", first and third verses I think and sang it as "Gone the rainbow" to basically the same tune.
