Slievenamon

Alone all alone by the wave-washed strand all alone in the crowded hall.
The hall it is gay and the waves they are are grand my heart isn't here at all.
It flies far away by night and by day to the times and the joys that are gone.
I never will forget the sweet maiden I met in the valley near Slievenamon.
It wasn't the grace of her queenly ace nor her cheeks rosy glow.
Her soft brown eyes or her long flowing hair nor was it her lily white brow.
Was the soul of truth and melting youth and her smile on a summer dawn.
That stole my heart away one fine summer's day
In the valley of Slievenamon.
In the festive hall by the wave-wash strand, ever my restless spirit cries.
My love o my love have I ne'er seen you more and my land I never uprise.
By night and by day I ever ever pray as only my life goes on.
To see our flag unfurl and my true love to enfold.
In the valley near Slievenamon...
