Love, my Lagan love, |
|
My Lagan love. |
|
Where Lagan stream sing lullaby, |
|
There blows a lily fair. |
|
The twilight gleam is in her eye, |
|
The night is on her hair. |
|
And like a love-sick lennan-shee |
|
She hath my heart in thrall |
|
No life have |
|
I, no liberty |
|
For love is lord of all |
|
My Lagan love. |
|
And sometimes when the beetles horn |
|
Hath lulled the eve to sleep |
|
I steal unto her shieling low |
|
And through her dooreen peep |
|
There on the cricket's singing stone |
|
She stirs the bog wood fire |
|
And hums in soft sweet undertones |
|
The song of heart's desire |
|
The song of heart's desire |
