Red Is the Rose lyrics
Come over the hills, my bonnie Irish lass
Come over the hills to your darling
You choose the road, love
And I'll make the vow
And I'll be your true love forever
[Chorus]
Red is the rose that yonder garden grows
Fair is the lily of the valley
Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne
But my love is fairer than any
T'was down by Killarney's green woods that we strayed
When the moon and the stars, they were shining
The moon shown its rays on her locks of golden hair
And she swore she'd be my love forever
[Chorus]
It's not for the parting that my sister pains
It's not for the grief of my mother
It's all for the loss of my Bonnie Irish lass
That my heart is breaking forever
[Chorus] X2
