[Verse]
One Dmmorning as I went a-Gfowling
Bright FPhoebus aGdorning the Amplain
It was Dmdown by the shores of Lough GErne
I Fmet with a Gbeautiful Dmdame
[Verse]
Her voice was so sweet and so Gpleasing
These Fbeautiful Gnotes she did Amsing
The Dminnocent fowl of the Gforest
Their Floving to Gher they did DmbringC  G  
[Verse]
It Dmbeing the first time I Gmet her
My Fheart it did Gleap with surAmprise
I Dmthought that she could be no Gmortal
But an Fangel that Gfell from the Dmskies
[Verse]
Her hair it hung down in gold Gtresses
Her Fskin was as Gwhite as the Amsnow
Her Dmcheeks were as red as the Groses
That will Fbloom along GLough Erne's DmshoreC  G  
[Verse]
When I Dmheard that my love was eGloping
These Fwords unGto her I did Amsay
Oh, Dmtake me to your habiGtation
For Fcupid has Gled me aDmstray

All my life I will keep the comGmandments
They Fsay that it Gis the best Amplan
Young Dmmaidens who yield to men's Gpleasures
The Fscriptures do Gsay they are Dmwrong
[Verse]
DmMary don't accuse me of Gweakness
All Ftreachery GI do disAmown
I will Dmmake you a lady of Ghonour
If Fwith me this Gnight you'll come Dmhome

And Flive along GLough Erne's Dmshore
And Flive along GLough Erne's Dmshore
And Flive along GLough Erne's Dmshore
