Thanks for that lead, Brian--I am going to look up that book and another called"fifty irish songs for the dulcimer" (or something like that). It is pretty enjoyable taking a tab and making adjustments to fit our ears/notions--just one more great thing about this instrument.
I've been looking through my music-related stuff, and I am coming up short. I found a few versions of this tune, but the only thing I can find in dulcimer tab is in the book "Mel Bay's Complete Book of Celtic Music for the Appalachian Dulcimer", and since that's copyrighted, it's not mine to share. Still, at least that's a source for you. I hope you find it useful. :)
Thanks, Brian, that would be great!--whenever you get the chance (no hurry). I am ready to buy a book or two if they have songs I am interested in.--Rick

Hi Rick! Thanks for your comments. I have a couple versions of this tune tabbed out, (at least one of those is from a tab book) so this was probably a melding of both of them. I will take a look tonight to see what I've got and try to get you some more information. ~Brian

Brian--Funny, this--I was searching for the tab for this tune on google and was directed here! I first heard this on "The Thistle and Shamrock" show on public radio a few years ago. I think it was on the harp. Is this your arrangement? If so, it is great! If not, it doesn't matter--you play it well and with a lot of feeling/truth. If it isn't your arrangement, could you tell me where you found it? Thanks for posting your videos!--Rick K.
