"Is there anyone who knows what this means or where I can hear a recorded version of this tune? It is one of the first ones I ever tried to play on fiddle, but I would like to hear how it is played traditionally, if it is in fact played by anyone. Thanks"

Recorded version
Reeltime does a lovely version of this tune that I just discovered. I assume it's on Green Linnet (not sure which album, sorry)

It's actually on their self-titled.
