“Ba dheas an leanbh, Róisín...”
"Ba dheas an leanbh, Roisín." is played by a number of children in a ring, with a little girl seated in the centre, representing "Roisín". The others sing, "Ba dheas....."
A fairy outside the ring, comes in and wakens Rosín who is asleep. The Sidheog dances Roisín and all join in the merriment.
