Текст песни Red is the Rose - Philomena Begley

Come over the hills my bonny Irish lad
Come over the hills to your darling
You choose the rose love and I'll make the vow
And I'll be your true love forever
Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows
And Fair is the lily of the valley
Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne
But my love is fairer than any
'Twas down by Killarney's green woods that we strayed
The moon and the stars, they were shining
The moon shone its rays on your locks of golden hair
You swore you'd be my love forever
Red is the rose that in 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
Instrumental
It's not for the parting of my sister's gaze
It's not for the grief of my mother
It's all for the loss of my bonny Irish lass
That my heart is breaking forever
Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows
And Fair is the lily of the valley
Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne
But my love is fairer than any
