  1. (continued from previous page)
    By either sun or moon
    For there is only one that e'er shall pull
    The Rose of Aughnabroon.
    I pity now those fine young men
    And all they do go through
    For if one do get to pull that rose
    What will all others do
    I'll poke away both night and day
    What e'er shall be my doom
    I'll seek or find or else go blind
    The Rose of Aughnabroon.
