Notes 2 The metadata for the Cape Breton Gaelic Folklore Collection has been compiled from an index at St FX University and additional information was entered by volunteers during online transcription frolics in 2021. At the end of the Language in Lyrics project in March 2022, the metadata is still incomplete and it is hoped that further funding will be secured for a project dedicated to expanding the metadata and completing transcriptions for these songs.
Notes 3 With introduction.
Notes 4 There is a verse at the beginning of the recording by Alec Campbell that begins as "S ma tha luach air an [?]" with the chorus "Màili dhonn bhòidheach dhonn." Ronald Beaton then responded with this verse.
