EILEEN AROON'
I
'LL love thee evermore, Eileen Aroon ! I'll bless thee o'er and o'er, Eileen Aroon ! Oh, for thy sake I'll tread Where the plains of Mayo spread, By hope still fondly led, Eileen Aroou !
Oh, how may I gain thee,
Eileen Aroon ? Shall feasting entertain thee,
Eileen Aroon ? I would range the world wide, With love alone to guide, To win thee for my bride,
Eileen Aroon!
Then wilt thou come away,
Eileen Aroon ? Oh, wilt thou come to stay,
Eileen Aroon ? Oh, oh, yes, with thee, I will wander far and free, And thy only love shall be,
Eileen Aroon!
A hundred thousand welcomes,
Eileen Aroon ! A hundred thousand welcomes,
Eileen Aroon ?
1 This Hardiman calls in his " Irish Minstrelsy'' the " old Eileen Aroon." |
