EILEEN AROON, by THOMAS FURLONG Poet's Biography First Line: I'll love thee evermore Last Line: Eileen a roon! Subject(s): Mayo (county), Ireland | ||||||||
I'LL love thee evermore, Eileen a Roon! I'll bless thee o'er and o'er, Eileen a Roon! O, for thy sake I'll tread, Where the plains of Mayo spread; By hope still fondly led, Eileen a Roon! O, how may I gain thee? Eileen a Roon! Shall feasting entertain thee? Eileen a Roon; I would range the world wide, With love alone to guide, To win thee for my bride, Eileen a Roon! Then wilt thou come away? Eileen a Roon! O, wilt thou come or stay? Eileen a Roon! O yes! O yes! with thee I will wander far and free, And thy only love shall be Eileen a Roon! A hundred thousand welcomes, Eileen a Roon! A hundred thousand welcomes, Eileen a Roon! O, welcome evermore, With welcomes yet in store, Till love and life are o'er, Eileen a Roon! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE COUNTY MAYO by ANTHONY RAFTERY MOLLY ASTORE by THOMAS FURLONG TO A MOUNTAIN DAISY by ROBERT BURNS A TRIBUTE OF GRASSES by HAMLIN GARLAND SUMMER SUN by ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON I WOULD BE THE SUN by JOHANNA AMBROSIUS EIGHTEEN HUNDRED AND ELEVEN by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD VERSES WRITTEN IN THE LEAVES OF AN IVORY POCKET-BOOK by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD |
