Beside the Feale there lives a lass,
A lovely, lively, fair one,
Few can her equal, none surpass,
In this our generation. (2)
Her golden tresses, eyes of blue,
Her manner mild, endearing,
Have charmed many a brave man true
Whose heart is for her yearning. (3)
The golden age of Ireland past,
Saw many a belle of beauty,
But none so brave, more free from faults
Or skilled in every duty, (4)
Than this true earthly angel bright,
So high-souled, shining, glorious,
Most faithful to her native land,
When heaped are vile wrongs odious
