About this tune
This reel travels under a tangle of contradictory titles: the glum "I Wish I Never Saw You" sits beside the romantic "My Love and I in the Garden" and "The Rose in the Garden." It has long circulated among whistle players — the Clare whistler Micho Russell recorded it, and Mary Bergin included it on her tin whistle album Feadóga Stáin.
