Oh ! bring me here that Gaelic dear
Which cursed the Saxon foe, When thou didst charm my raptured ear
Mo craoibhin cno / And none but God's good angels near,
Mo craoibhin cno I |

I've wandered by the rolling Lee,
And Lene's green bowers; I've seen the Shannon's wide-spread sea
And Limerick's towers— And Liffey's tide, where halls of pride
Frown o'er the flood below; My wild heart strays to Amhan-mhor's side,
Mo craoibhin cno / With love and thee for aye to bide,
Mo craoibhin cno ! |

O
SIT beside me, Nelly Ban, bright favorite of my heart, Unless I touch thy snowy neck my life will soon depart — I'd swim for thee the River Suir and Shannon's widespread sea: Thou dost excel the beauteous maids of the town on blue Loch Rea ! |
