The Vallely bros do indeed use this name on their cd, but this tune is widely known as the Humours of Ballyloughlin, and already exists in the database. Sorry Gian Marco.

Humours of Derryloughan

This tune is played on Celtic Harpistry by Marie Ni Cathsaigh. She calls it Humours of Ballyloughlan. She says it is very old and was probably a Clan march but survived in the form of a dance tune. Many Clan Marches were considered forms of sedition and were outlawed.
