Glenbrohane is a place where there's pleasure and joy.
Beneath the tall mountain in a valley
it lie:
Where the fairest of maidens are charming

As I passed by O'Donovan's I made a tour in,
And I spent my time chatting with
Anne of the Glen.

Like the hare in the mountain and the fox
in his den:
But as pure as the fountain is young
