The Flower of Maherally - Anúna, Michael McGlynn

One pleasant summer’s morning when all the flowers were springing O

Nature was adorning and the wee birds sweetly singing O

I met my love near Banbridge Town, my charming blue-eyed Sally O

She’s the queen of the County Down, the flower of Maherally O

With admiration I did gaze upon this blue-eyed maiden O

Adam wasn’t half so pleased when he met his Eve in Eden O

Her skin was like the lily white that grows in yonder valley O

She’s my queen and my heart’s delight, the flower of Maherally O

I hope the day will surely come when we’ll join hands together O

'Tis then I’ll take my darling home in spite of wind and weather O

And let them all say what they will and let them reel and rally O

For I shall wed the girl I love, the flower of Maherally O

And let them all say what they will and let them reel and rally O

For I shall wed the girl I love, the flower of Maherally O
