Eileen Alannah, Eileen Asthore
Light of my soul and it's Queen evermore
It seems years have lingered since last we did part
Eileen Alannah, the pride of my heart
Oh, darling loved one your dear smile I miss
My lips seem to cling to that sweet parting kiss
Mavourneen thy dear face I see at the door
Eileen Alannah, Augus Asthore

Faithful I'll be to the colleen I adore
Eileen Alannah, Augus Asthore
Faithful I'll be to the colleen I adore
Eileen Alannah, Augus Asthore

Eileen Alannah, Eileen Asthore
The ocean's blue waters wash by the shore
Of that dear land of shamrock, where thou doth abide
Waiting the day when I'll call thee my bride
God bless you darling I know you are true
True to the boy who would die now for you
My heart is now bleeding to it's innermost core
Eileen Alannah, Augus Asthore

Soon I'll be back to the colleen I adore
Eileen Alannah, Augus Asthore
Soon I'll be back to the colleen I adore
Eileen Alannah, Augus Asthore
