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