Irish folksong melody arranged with variations for 2 flutes and piano.
The melody has been arranged by various composers over the centuries including Henry Purcell and also became known to listeners of BBC World Service in the 20th Century as its signature tune, despite the fact that the original song was more than somewhat disparaging of British rule over the Irish!

lyrics

Ho, brother Teague, dost hear the decree? Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
That we shall have a new deputy. Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
Lero, lero, lilliburlero, Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
Lero, lero, lilliburlero, Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
Ho, by my soul it is the Talbot,
And he will cut all the English throat.
Ho, brother Teague, dost hear the decree? Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
That we shall have a new deputy. Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
Lero, lero, lilliburlero, Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
Lero, lero, lilliburlero, Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
Though by my soul the English do prate,
The law’s on their side and Christ knows what.
Ho, brother Teague, dost hear the decree? Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
That we shall have a new deputy. Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
Lero, lero, lilliburlero, Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
Lero, lero, lilliburlero, Lilliburlero, bullen a la.
