And hear the doves coo 'neath the morning sunbeam

Where the thrush and the robin their sweet notes entwine

On the banks of the Shure that flows down by Mooncoin.



Flow on lovely river, flow gently along

By your waters so sweet sounds the lark's merry song

By your green banks I wander where first I did join

With you lovely Molly, the rose of Mooncoin.

Oh Molly, dear Molly, it breaks my fond heart

To know that we two now forever must part

But I'll think of you Molly, when sun and moon shine

On the banks of the Shure that flows down by Mooncoin.



Flow on lovely river, flow gently along

By your waters so sweet sounds the lark's merry song

By your green banks I wander where first I did join

With you lovely Molly, the rose of Mooncoin.



With you lovely Molly, the rose of Mooncoin...
