I learnt this tune today at the Hibernia Centre in Bristol, and transcribed from my tape of Jill Elliott's teaching performance.
It goes well with The Laird of Drumblair strathspey (on this site) which I also learnt recently.

The tune seems to have come from Scotland to Donegal, as many strathspeys have done. "Hame", I believe, is Scottish for "home".

There is an error in second repeat bar of the first part; it should read (3Adf a>A d3g.
