Rocks of Bawn (Rocks of White) talks about Oliver Cromwell's invasion of Ireland in 1649 and the treatment of the Roman Catholics.
Rocks of White is not a good transaltion. In Irish the presence of "of" between Rocks and White denotes the genitive 9(n t-uiseal ginideach). This indicates that both Rocks and White are nouns.
In Cavan it is asserted that the Rocks of Bawn refers to the poor soil (impossible to plough) in west cavan, adjacent to the town of Bawnboy (An Babhún Buí - the yellow earth enclosure - that the earth enclosure is referred to as a Babhún rather than a Lios or Rath indicates that it was enclosure made up during the Elizabethan plantation of Ulster - q.v.)
The general air and wording of the song would also indicate that it might not be an Irish song but possibly a Scots song.
I do not know the reference but have been told that the song is mentioned by Bertie (A.L.) LLoyd in one of his books - if true this would add strength to the theory that it is not an Irish song originally.
