Lyrics:
I wish I were on yonder hill,
'Tis there I'd sit and cry my fill,
And ev'ry tear would turn a mill,
Is go de mo vourneen slàn.
Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go cuin,
Shule go teir an durrus augus eligh glum,
Is go de mo vourneen slàn.
I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel,
I'll sell my only spinning-wheel,
To buy my love a sword of steel,
Is go de mo vourneen slàn.
To buy my love a sword of steel,
Is go de mo vourneen slàn.
