[Verse}
There's a home by the white Abhainn Mhór
That will sweep over the broad open sea
And white rivers where the waves wash ashore
Whilst bulrushes, they'll wave to the breeze
Where the green ivy clings round the door
And the birds sweetly sing on each street
Oh my darling they're tuning their notes
'S Ar Éirinn Ní Neosfainn Cé Hí
Like a sick man that longs for the dawn
I do long for the light of her smile
And I pray for my own cailín bán
Whilst I'm waiting for her by the stile/stór
Oh-I'd climb all the hills of this land
And I'd swim all the depths of the sea
To get one kiss from her lily-white hand
'S Ar Éirinn Ní Neosfainn Cé Hí
I have toiled so those years of my life
Through storm, through sunshine and rain
And I surely would venture my life
For to shield her one moment from pain
For she being my comfort in life
Now my comfort and joy she will be
She's my all, she is my promised wife
'S Ar Éirinn Ní Neosfainn Cé Hí
Ah but when I will call her my own
And 'tis married we both then will be
Like the king and the queen on their throne
We'll be living in sweet unity
Oh, 'tis then I'll have a home of my own
And I'll rear up a nice family
Oh, 'tis then that her name will be known
But for Ireland I won't tell her name
