O cothogas dhiom an fhodachd (audio)

There are two well known songs to this tune, this version is a sea song - a poem written by a woman for her sailor lad at sea. In it she expresses her fears that he might be drowned, or some other misfortune befall him, so the refrain, 'o cothogas dhiom an fhadachd' - who will relieve me of my longing, is especially effective.
