But One But And And no, alas, we have never seen, glimpse ~f pleasured ray; still there oame some cl~ud between, chased i t all away, dear love! chased i t a.ll a.way.

May heaven its blessings sparing, On her bestow them free, The lovely maid of Erin, Who sweetly sang to me. Had fortune fixed my station, In some propitious hour, The monarch of a nation, Endowed with wealth and power That wealth and power sharing, My pureless queen should be, The lovely maid of Erin, Who sweetly sand to me. Although the restless ocean, May long between us roar, Yet while my heart has motion, She will long within its core For artless and endearing , And mild and young is she, The lovely maid of Erin, Who sweetly sang to me. When fate gives intimation, That my last hour is nigh, With placid resignation, I will lay me down and die Fond hope my bosom cheering, That I in heaven shall see The lovely maid of Erin, Who sweetly sang to me. folk songs Irish love Maid of Erin songs and music Irish songs and music women singers
