    Amhráin
    Nellie Ray
    I love a little country queen.
    Of village beauty and rare
    With rosy cheeks and pretty teeth
    And lovely nut brown hair
    Her waist it is so slender .
    And her feet they are so small
    And of all the girls I ever met
    My Nellie beat them all
    Nellie Ray,Nellie Ray charming little Nell.
    Nellie Ray,Nellie Ray,you are my pretty Belle.
