1
Alone all alone by the wave-washed strand
2
And alone in a crowded hall
3
The hall it is gay and the waves they are grand
4
But but my heart is not here at all
5
It lies far away by night and by day
6
To the times and the joys that are gone
7
But I never will forget the sweet maiden I met
8
In the valley near Slievenamon
9
Oh it was not the grace of her queenly air
10
Nor her cheeks of roses glow
11
Nor her soft black eyes nor her flowing hair
12
Nor was it her lily white brow
13
'Twas the soul of truth and of melting ruth
14
And the smile like a summer's dawn
15
That stole my heart away one soft summer's day
16
In the valley near Slievenamon.
17
In the festive hall by the star watched shore Oh ever my restless spirit cries
18
My love oh my love will 1 ne'er see you more
19
And my land will you never uprise
20
By night and by day 1 ever ever pray
21
While lonely my life flows on
22
To see our flag unrolled
23
And my true love to enfold
24
In the valley near Slievenamon.
