Sara Dunne, Ballyvadlea, Mullinahone.
Told by Mrs. Dunne, Ballyvadlea, "
(Ages 45 years, Farmer's Wife) - Song of Wren Boys"The wren, the wren,
That you may see
All dressed upon
A holly tree
A bunch of ribbons
By her side
And the mullinhone boys
To be her guide.Up with the kettle
And down with the pan
Give us you answer
And let us be gone."Cecilia Greene, Chapel St, Mullinahone.
