[Verse 1]
B
She lived beside the Anner,
E B
At the foot of Slievna-man,
E F# G#m
F# gentle peasant girl,
E F#
With mild eyes like the dawn;
B E B
Her lips were dewy rosebuds;
E F# G#m
Her teeth of pearls rare;
E D#m
And a snow-drift 'neath a beechen bough
E F# B
Her neck and nut-brown hair
[Verse 2]
B
How pleasant was to meet her
E B
On Sunday when the bell
E F# G#m
Was filling with its mellow tone
E F#
Lone wood and grassy dell,
B E B
And when at eve young maidens
E F# G#m
Strayed the river bank along,
E D#m
The widow's brown-haired daughter,
E F# B
Was loveliest of the throng
[Chorus]
F# D#m
O brave, brave Irish girls-
E B
We well may call you brave!-
G#m D#m
Sure the least of all your perils
E F#
Is the stormy ocean wave,
F# D#m
When you leave our quiet valleys,
E B
And cross the Atlantic's foam
G#m D#m
To hoard your hard-won earnings,
G#m F# B
For the helpless ones at home.
[Verse 3]
B
"Write word to my own dear mother,
E B
Say we'll meet with God above;
E F# G#m
And tell my little brothers,
E F#
I send them all my love;
B E B
May the angels ever guide them
E F# G#m
Is their dying sister's prayer"-
E D#m
And folded in a letter
E F# B
Was a braid of nut-brown hair
[Verse 4]
B
Ah cold and well-nigh callous,
E B
This weary heart has grown,
E F# G#m
For thy helpless fate, dear Ireland
E F#
And for sorrows of my own
B E B
Yet a tear, my eye will moisten
E F# G#m
When by Anner side I stray,
E D#m
For the lily of the mountain foot,
E F# B
That withered far away
[Chorus]
F# D#m
O brave, brave Irish girls-
E B
We well may call you brave!-
G#m D#m
Sure the least of all your perils
E F#
Is the stormy ocean wave,
F# D#m
When you leave our quiet valleys,
E B
And cross the Atlantic's foam
G#m D#m
To hoard your hard-won earnings,
G#m F# B
For the helpless ones at home.
