  1. (continued from previous page)
    be thine,
    I'll buy for her jewels and diamonds so fine,
    my sweet little girl from Barnagh.
    My country is in bondage I must set it free,
    from the foes that opressed our green isle of the sea,
    should victory smile in a banner to thee,
    I'd fly and live happy in Barnagh.
