The Lakes Of Wolferin (Irish trad)
Willie and a friend go for a swim in a lake. Willie dives in first and swims around but he warns his friend not to follow, warning him of ‘deep and false water.’ Sure enough, Willie drowns
The lake where Willie drowns has a variety of names in different versions of the song but none of the names is on any modern map. There is speculation that it might have been an expanse of the River Bann, or connected to it, and the tune is very close to the song 'The Banks of the Bann' which supports that theory
The earliest known date for the song is 1873. There are several other names, including Willie Leonard / The Lakes of Cold Finn/Coolfinn/Shilinn. There is an American version called The Lakes of Champlain
