Moved Through the Faire</b>") is a traditional Irish <a href="/wiki/Folk_song" class="mw-redirect" title="Folk song">folk song</a>, with a number of iterations, that has been performed and recorded by various artists. The narrator sees his lover move away from him through the fair, after telling him that since her family will approve, "it will not be long [love] 'til our wedding day". She returns as a ghost at night, and repeats the words again, intimating her own tragic death and the couple's potential reunion in the afterlife. There are numerous alternate versions, some sung about a male lover, with different lyrics, such as "Our Wedding Day" and "My Young Love Said to Me", among others. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Origins_and_structure">Origins and structure</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=She_Moved_Through_the_Fair&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Origins and structure"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>"She Moved Through the Fair" has been found both in <a href="/wiki/Ireland" title="Ireland">Ireland</a> and in <a href="/wiki/Scotland" title="Scotland">Scotland</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> but pieces of the song were apparently first collected in <a href="/wiki/County_Donegal" title="County Donegal">County Donegal</a> by <a href="/wiki/Longford" title="Longford">Longford</a> poet <a href="/wiki/Padraic_Colum" title="Padraic Colum">Padraic Colum</a> and the musicologist <a href="/wiki/Herbert_Hughes_(musicologist)" class="mw-redirect" title="Herbert Hughes (musicologist)">Herbert Hughes</a>.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

He also described how Herbert Hughes collected the tune and then he, Colum, had kept the last verse of a traditional song and written a couple of verses to fit the music.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>One verse was not included in the first publication: Colum soon realised that he had not put in the poem the fact that the woman had died before the marriage, and so he wrote the verse that begins: "The people were saying, that no two were e'er wed, but one had a sorrow that never was said ..." and sent it on to Hughes, too late for publication in that particular collection. This extra verse was published in other collections, along with the other three verses. The lyrics were also published in Colum's collection <i>Wild Earth: And Other Poems</i> (1916), though the traditional origin of the final verse is not mentioned there.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In the course of the same <i>Irish Times</i> correspondence, however, another music collector, Proinsias Ó Conluain, said he had recorded a song called "She Went Through the Fair", with words the same as the other three verses of "She Moved Through the Fair", sung by an old man who told him that "the song was a very old one" and that he had learned it as a young man from a basket-weaver in <a href="/wiki/Glenavy" title="Glenavy">Glenavy</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id=""Our_Wedding_Day"_version"><span id=".22Our_Wedding_Day.22_version"></span>"Our Wedding Day" version</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=She_Moved_Through_the_Fair&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: "Our Wedding Day" version"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Irish singer <a href="/wiki/Paddy_Tunney" title="Paddy Tunney">Paddy Tunney</a> related<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> how Colum wrote an alternate version called upon returning from a literary gathering in Donegal with Herbert Hughes, among others. However, as the melody remains the same, Tunney suggested that it would be more accurate to say that Colum simply added new lyrics to an existing traditional song that, by then, had generated many variations throughout Ireland </p><p>Tunney, himself, collected a version from an Irish singer named Barney McGarvey. This version, similarly to the lyrics of "Our Wedding Day", was called "I Once Had a True Love". The opening four lines are highly reminiscent of "She Moved Through the Fair", and the second four lines are unmistakably taken from that composition. </p><p>The first verse says: </p> <dl><dd><i><small>I once had a sweet-heart, I loved her so well.</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>I loved her far better than my tongue could tell.</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>Her parents, they slight me, for my want of gear;</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>So adieu to you, Molly, since you are not here.</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>I dreamed last night that my true love came in.</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>So softly she came that her feet made no din.</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>She stepped up to me, and this she did say:</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>"It will not be long, love, till our wedding day…"</small></i></dd></dl> <p>The remaining two verses are quite different. Tunney also points to a version of the song that he obtained from his mother, who called it "My Young Love Said to Me", which recalls lyrics from the alternate version, as well. The first verse is virtually the same as Colum's, but the latter three verses are quite different: </p> <dl><dd><i><small>My young love said to me, "My mother won't mind…</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>And my father won't slight you for your lack of kine."</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>And she went away from me, and this she did say:</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>"It will not be long, now, till our wedding day."</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>She went away from me, and she moved through the fair;</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>Where hand-slapping dealers' loud shouts rent the air.</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>The sunlight around her did sparkle and play,</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>Saying, "…it will not be long, now, till our wedding day."</small></i></dd></dl> <dl><dd><i><small>When dew falls on meadow, and moths fill the night;</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>When glow of the greesagh on hearth throws half-light,</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>I'll slip from the casement, and we'll run away.</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>And it will not be long, love, till our wedding day.</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>According to promise, at midnight he rose;</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>But all that he found was the downfolded clothes.</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>The sheets, they lay empty; 'twas plain for to see.</small></i></dd> <dd><i><small>And out of the window, with another, went she.</small></i></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Variants_and_related_songs">Variants and related songs</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=She_Moved_Through_the_Fair&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Variants and related songs"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>One variant of the song is called "Our Wedding Day".
