IRISH SONGS AND LYRICS
5i
Oh, when the bays are all my own,
I know a heart will care, Oh, when the gold is wooed and won,
1 know a brow shall wear, Aileen;
I know a brow shall wear.
And when with both returned again,
My native land to see, I know a smile will meet me then,
And a hand will welcome me, Aileen;
A hand will welcome me.
SOGGARTH AROON'
A M I the slave they say, Soggarth aroon ? Since you did show the way, Soggarth aroon, Their slave no more to be, While they would work with me Ireland's slavery, Soggarth aroon !
Loyal and brave to you,
Soggarth aroon, Yet be not slave to you,
Soggarth aroon, Nor, out of fear to you, Stand up so near to you — Och ! out of fear to you,
Soggarth aroon !
1 Soggarth aroon, " Priest, dear."
