Lovers are blooming in Donegal

Every rose bud is wet with the dew

Of all the flowers in Ireland

None have so fair here as you



Rose, Rose, Rose of Killarney

Sure I love you

There was never a Colleen

With heart so true



Sometimes I see dear

A devil in your eye

Don't ever leave me

Mavourneen, I would die



My Rose, Rose, Rose of Killarney

Sure I love you



Lassies I've met here in Donegal

Eyes of brown, eyes of grey, and of blue

Sweet are my heart and His other gifts

I thank God He gave me you



Sometimes I see dear

A devil in your eye

Don't ever leave me

Mavourneen, I would die



My Rose, Rose, Rose of Killarney

Sure I love you...
