%Unusual title derives from a song (supplied to Breathnach 
%by Denis Murphy). The translation from Irish isn't exact 
%("is an" would mean "and the", not "in the") 
%
%This is as good a place as any to mention other confusions 
%among tunes with "Hens" or "Chickens" in the title (e.g., 
%"The Hen and Her Brood", "Hen and Her Broth [?]"
%"Anraith" above definitely means "soup" while "brĂ³d" is 
%"brood", i.e. lots of little chicks. Probably a bad 
%back-translation somewhere. . .
