N.B. MIDI is a terrible way to learn a fiddle tune!
Lyrics based on the poem 'Akhdes' ('Brotherhood') by Morris Winchevsky (1856-1932), published in 1890 in New York.. The song was associated with the secular labour movement.
Many thanks to Glenn Orenstein for pointing out my egregious error in the key signature in November 2011. Thank you!
