    in her cottage by the sea.

    For goodness she holds the sway,
    For grace and beauty too,
    From a soul that’s pure and innocent
    Shine her eyes of Irish blue,
    Her springy step has sounded
    From Kilmarnoch to the sea
    Now she simply smiles in wonder
    In her cottage by the sea.
