I hear it slightly different, "pere", but that's the gut of the tune OK. I would dispute the high "b" notes in the 2nd and 6th bars of the 2nd part. Was that a typo ? Mind you, Molloy over-blows a lot of the notes into the 2nd octave on this recording, and it's played at a hell of a speed. My least favourite Molloy recording, in fact, for that very reason.
I'll post my transcription later, but it's basically the same as yours. Should please "domnull".
Good man yerself.

Thanks guys - (I agree with Kenny about the high b's)

Hmm... really? You must be right. Sorry then. So it's low B? Can you post your transcription/s?
Actually I thought about that... the over-blowing... but I thought that high b really was high... well... ta bron orm...

Sorry, I didn't realise someone else had already posted it. But, my transcription is in better shape this time.
