Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

Alone, all alone, by the wave-washed strand
\nAll alone in the crowded hall
\nThe hall it is gay, and the waves they are grand
\nBut my heart is not here at all
\nIt flies far away, by night and by day
\nTo the times and the joys that are gone
\nBut I never will forget the sweet maiden I met
\nIn the valley of Slievenamon<\/p>\n

It was not the grace of her queenly aire
\nNor her cheek of the rose’s glow
\nNor her soft black eyes, not her flowing hair
\nNor was it her lily white brow
\nTwas the soul of truth, and of melting ruth
\nAnd the smile like a summer dawn
\nThat sold my heart away on a soft summer day
\nIn the valley of Slievenamon<\/p>\n

In the festival hall, by the star-washed shore
\nEver my restless spirit cries
\n“My love, oh, my love, shall I ne’er see you more
\nAnd my land, will you never uprise?”
\nBy night and by day, I ever, ever pray
\nWhile lonely my life flows on
\nTo see our flag unfurled and my true love to enfold
\nIn the valley of Slievenamon<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
