For ever , for ever, you have my heart, O Eileen a-Roon! 'Tis rueful, ' tis woeful, when lovers part, O Eileen a-Roon! Mayo would I travel from morn to night, For one sweet smile of your face of light, For one soft kiss from your red lips bright, My Eileen a- Roon! O! how shall I woo you-how make you mine- Fair Eileen a- Roon? Can warm words win you? can gold? can wine? Sweet Eileen a- Roon? I would walk the wide world from east to west, Inspired by love, if I could but rest One heavenly hour on your beauteous breast, O Eileen a- Roon! Come with me, come with me, then, darling one! Come, Eileen a- Roon! The moments are precious- Oh, let us be gone, My Eileen a- Roon! |
