Ireland’s Green Shore Lyrics by JigJam

Hello World

2015

One evening for pleasure I rambled
On the banks of some cold purling stream
I sat down on a bed of primroses
And I gently fell into a dream
I dreamt that I saw a fair female
Her equal I ne’er saw before
And I sighed for the laws of our country
As we strayed there on Ireland’s green shore
Her cheeks were like two bloomin’ roses
Her teeth were like ivory so white
Her eyes shon like two sparkling diamonds
Or the stars on some cold frosty night
She was dressed in the richest attire
And green was the mantle she wore
All bound down with hemlocks and roses
As we strayed there on Ireland’s green shore
Transgression of joy I awoken
I found this was only a dream
That pretty fair female had fled me
I longed to be slumbering again
My the heavens above her be guardian
Though I know I’ll never see her no more
May the god of the sun shine above her
She lies sleeping on Ireland’s green shore
One evening for pleasure I rambled
On the banks of some cold purling stream
I sat down on a bed of primroses
And I gently fell into a dream
And I dreamt that I saw a fair female
Her equal I ne’er saw before
And I sighed for the laws of our country
As we strayed there on Ireland’s green shore
And I sighed for the laws of our country
As we strayed there on Ireland’s green shore
