Original lyrics
ENI'll take you home again, kathleen,
Across the ocean, wild and wide.
To where your heart, has ever been,
Since first you were, my bo-onnie bride
The roses all, have left your cheek,
I watched them, fade away and die.
Your voice is sad, when e'er you speak,
And tears bedim, your loving eyes.
Oh I will take you back, kathleen,
To where your heart, will feel no pain.
And when the fields, are fresh and green,
I-I'ii take you to, your home again.
