"an Cuisin (suisin?) Ban" In D ?

I'm looking for the tune "An Cuisin Ban" or "An Suisin Ban" in the key of D
Not to be contrary but An Suisin Ban would be more common in G.

I find "The White Blanket", key of G, on p. 45 of Betram Levy's The Anglo Concertina Demystified. (G is also the key I learned it in these many years past, from a piper.)

While you do probably want An Suisin Ban (which is a lovely and at the same time extremely simple tune, and most of the versions on JC's tune finder aren't near the way it is normally played) it keeps naggging inside my head (as you are uncertain of your spelling) it's An Cruiscin Lan you are after. But that's in G too.

I have it in G already, so I guess I'll just have to get it the hard way and transpose it to D.

I suppose this is the punishment that comes from being so lazy.
