I came home in May with glad heart Nothing there that could cause me grief Nothing could make me sorrow full and bitter Nothing could make my head hang down Eileen my white flower of the blackberry Whiter than lilies The dew of rose Eileen my bright flower of the blackberry My summer breeze A poem in the spring
Woman why are you crying out your eyes now Are there any other wooers around Woman the nightingale sang me a tale tonight That is not soothing music to my ears Eileen my white flower of the blackberry Whiter than lilies The dew of rose Eileen my bright flower of the blackberry My summer breeze A poem in the spring So green her eyes . Burning red her hair A hundred rings of thorns around my neck There's a thousand strings strangling my chest
Is tú mo ghrá A hundred rings of thorns around my neck There's a thousand strings strangling my chest Eileen my white flower of the blackberry Whiter than lilies The dew of rose Eileen Is tú mo ghrá Eileen my death in the spring
