The Dowie Dens of Yarrow and The Burning of Auchindoun are both ballads, found in various collections including Child. The Dowie Dens is a Border Ballad. My Love's in Germanie is by Hector MacNeil. The Gaelic song authors are all unknown to my knowledge. Bothan Airigh am Braighe Raithneach is around 400 years old, passed down exclusively orally for most of that time.
