EILEEN AROON, by THOMAS FURLONG Poet's Biography First Line: I'll love thee evermore Last Line: Eileen a roon! Subject(s): Mayo (county), Ireland | |||
I'LL love thee evermore, Eileen a Roon! I'll bless thee o'er and o'er, Eileen a Roon! O, for thy sake I'll tread, Where the plains of Mayo spread; By hope still fondly led, Eileen a Roon! O, how may I gain thee? Eileen a Roon! Shall feasting entertain thee? Eileen a Roon; I would range the world wide, With love alone to guide, To win thee for my bride, Eileen a Roon! Then wilt thou come away? Eileen a Roon! O, wilt thou come or stay? Eileen a Roon! O yes! O yes! with thee I will wander far and free, And thy only love shall be Eileen a Roon! A hundred thousand welcomes, Eileen a Roon! A hundred thousand welcomes, Eileen a Roon! O, welcome evermore, With welcomes yet in store, Till love and life are o'er, Eileen a Roon! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE COUNTY MAYO by ANTHONY RAFTERY MOLLY ASTORE by THOMAS FURLONG LITTLE BROWN BABY by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR SEAWEED by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW VOICES OF THE NIGHT: PRELUDE by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW THE DEATH-BED by SIEGFRIED SASSOON THE HIGHER PANTHEISM IN A NUTSHELL by ALGERNON CHARLES SWINBURNE |
