   I whispered love into her ear and then I did propose
   Look at Dunmanus Castle where dwells the Mac's and O's
   I will raise it up in splendour and for ever more will rest
   On the stately walls and lonely halls where the raven builds her nest

   "Kind Sir don't be too forward for I'm engaged before
   Look on those lands with silvery strands and seagulls soaring o'er.
   It's there dwells the fisherman I never will forsake
   Who goes out by night with heart so light, to catch the cod and hake"

   O Mollie, lovely Mollie, you know it is not fair,
   That you should marry a fisherman and I a millionaire
   For you do look so handsome in humble skirt & shawl
   I build for you mansion as high as China wall

   I saw her lips to murmur I thought she would say "yes"
   You could hear my bosom throbing in the village of Dubras
   The beauty of Dunmanus Bay have vanished ere from me
   And the pride of all sweet Molly and top of Cairbre
