Eileen Aroon

"Come, love, and dwell with me,
Eileen aroon;
I'll roam the world with thee,
Eileen aroon!
Down to Terawley free,
From this sad house we'll flee,
If thou wilt wed with me,
Eileen aroon!

"We'll seek a home of peace,
Eileen aroon;
All fear and doubt shall cease,
Eileen aroon.
If thou wilt seek my side,
If thou wilt be my bride,
All matters not beside,
Eileen aroon.

"Then, wilt thou fly or stay,
Eileen aroon?
Ah! do not say me nay,
Come to me soon."
"I come, I come to thee,
Life of the world to me,
Nought holds me, for I flee
Thus to thy home."

"Welcome thy steps before,
Eileen aroon.
Fling wide our cottage door,
Eileen aroon.
Oh! welcome evermore,
My darling and my store,
Thou shalt go out no more,
Eileen aroon!"
