One pleasant summer's morning, when all the flowers were springing O

She's the queen of the County Down, the flower of Magherally O

With admiration I did gaze upon this blue-eyed maiden O

Her yellow hair in ringlets clung, her shoes were Spanish leather O

Her bonnet with blue ribbons strung, her scarlet cap and feather O

And let them all say what they will and let them reel and rally O

For I shall wed the girl I love, the flower of Magherally O
