  21. Give Me Your Hand by The Wolfe Tones on 'Till Ireland A Nation (Triskel)

    One of the most widely recorded pieces of Irish traditional music, “Give Me Your Hand” is a tune originally from early 17th century Ireland commonly attributed to Derry harpist Rory Dall O'Cahan, though its true source is sometimes disputed. The lyrics in this version, composed by Brian Warfield of The Wolfe Tones, are contemporary.
