Lovers are blooming in Donegal
Every rose bud is wet with the dew
Of all the flowers in Ireland
None have so fair here as you

Rose, Rose, Rose of Killarney
Sure I love you
There was never a Colleen
With heart so true

Sometimes I see dear
A devil in your eye
Don't ever leave me
Mavourneen, I would die

My Rose, Rose, Rose of Killarney
Sure I love you

Lassies I've met here in Donegal
Eyes of brown, eyes of grey, and of blue
Sweet are my heart and His other gifts
I thank God He gave me you

Sometimes I see dear
A devil in your eye
Don't ever leave me
Mavourneen, I would die

My Rose, Rose, Rose of Killarney
Sure I love you.
