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