The tune is usually attributed to blind harpist and singer Turlough O'Carolan. Sí Mór (Sheemore) and Sí Beag (Sheebeg) are the names given to two small hills, situated close to each other in south County Leitrim. But you knew that. Nice playing. When the plague passes, I need to build one of these.
Thats great! have fun. Almost any tune or song now pretty much has a Merlin/strumstick/Stick Dulcimer version on youtube as the commmunity groups have been active doing covers and tabs!
That's beautiful!
Thank you so much for putting the tab there too. I look forward to learning this, I've always loved this tune.

I recently ordered a Merlin. This will be the first song I will practice when it gets here. Thank you!!

Been thinking of getting a strumstick, because I'm not a big fan of the guitar, but this would aid me in singing.
Strumstick and seagull Merlin are both easily commercially available and suitable for strumming chords, lots of tunes on TH-cam
I can play this on my Smoky Ridge mountain dulcimer.
Great to hear!
@@michaeljking thanks
Cool! I play it on my dulcimer as well. I'd be glad to hear your version.
@@aaronflinner6431 with practice, it should sound great.
Como se llama este instrumento?
