One pleasant summer's morning when all the flowers were springing O |
|
Nature was adorning and the wee birds sweetly singing O |
|
I met my love near Banbridge Town, my charming blue-eyed Sally O |
|
She's the queen of the County Down, the flower of Magherally O |
|
With admiration I did gaze upon this blue-eyed maiden O |
|
Adam wasn't half so much pleased when he met Eve in Eden O |
|
Her skin was like the lily white that grows in yonder valley O |
|
She's my queen and my heart's delight, the flower of Magherally O |
|
Her yellow hair in ringlets clung, her shoes were Spanish leather O |
|
Her bonnet with blue ribbons strung, her scarlet cap and feather O |
|
Like Venus bright she did appear, my charming blue-eyed Sally O |
|
She's the girl that I love dear, the flower of Magherally O |
|
I hope the day will surely come when we'll join hands together O |
|
'Tis then I'll bring my darling home in spite of wind or weather O |
|
And let them all say what they will and let them reel and rally O |
|
For I shall wed the girl I love, the flower of Magherally O |
