For ever , for ever, you have my heart, O Eileen a-Roon! 'Tis rueful, ' tis woeful, when lovers part, O Eileen a-Roon! Mayo would I travel from morn to night, For one sweet smile of your face of light, For one soft kiss from your red lips bright, My Eileen a- Roon! O! how shall I woo you-how make you mine- Fair Eileen a- Roon? Can warm words win you? can gold? can wine? Sweet Eileen a- Roon? I would walk the wide world from east to west, Inspired by love, if I could but rest One heavenly hour on your beauteous breast, O Eileen a- Roon! Come with me, come with me, then, darling one! Come, Eileen a- Roon! The moments are precious- Oh, let us be gone, My Eileen a- Roon! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...WEIGHING THE BABY by ETHEL LYNN BEERS THE BEAUTIFUL by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES COMPARISON OF LOVE TO A STREAM FALLING FROM THE ALPS by THOMAS WYATT THE OUTGOING OF SABBATH by ALTER ABELSON DANS LA BOHEME by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH MAY CELEBRANTS by WILLIAM ROSE BENET OLD REMEDIES by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN |
