Spirited tune (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lilt

'spirited tune' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for lilt that I've seen before include "Swing - rhythm" , "Tune's gentle rhythm" , "happy music" , "...jaunty rhythm, perhaps" , "Light, bouncy rhythm" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post Sunday, the USA Today, the Universal and the Newsday.com.
