This traditional Irish folksong, titled "The Meeting Of The Waters," is composed in G major and E minor, and is arranged by Phillip Keveren. It is 28 measures long and is suitable for any acoustic instrument. It is a melancholic tune about two rivers meeting, with the melody plaintively describing their sorrowful parting. The plaintive melody is accompanied by a steady, folk-inspired accompaniment of simple chords in the background, adding to the bittersweet expression of the tune.
