If you listen I'll sing you a sweet little song W: Of a flower that's now droped and dead, W: Yet dearer to me, yes than all of its mates, W: Though each holds aloft its proud head. W: Twas given to me by a girl that I know, W: Since we've met, faith I've known no repose. W: She is dearer by far than the world's brightest star, W: And I call her my wild Irish Rose. W: W: Ch. My wild Irish Rose, the sweetest flower that grows. W: You may search everywhere, but none can compare with my wild Irish Rose. W: My wild Irish Rose, the dearest flower that grows, W: And some day for my sake, she may let me take the bloom from my wild Irish Rose. W: W: 2. They may sing of their roses, which by other names, W: Would smell just as sweetly, they say. W: But I know that my Rose would never consent W: To have that sweet name taken away. W: Her glances are shy when e'er I pass by W: The bower where my true love grows, W: And my one wish has been that some day I may win W: The heart of my wild Irish Rose.
