    My Molly sweet Molly
    From Lough Erne's Shore
    When my Molly said "yes"
    Oh! My heart filled with joy,
    Oh! where could you find
    Such a fortunate boy -
    I ne'er was so happy
    So happy before,
    I'll have Molly, sweet Molly
    From Lough Erne's Shore.
    I have furnished a cottage
    With roses entwined,
    Until we get married
    Seems years to my mind:
    When you'll come to my wedding
    You'll have fun galore -
    So entrancing the dancing
    By Louigh Erne's Shore.
