The daughter of Megan, so lovely and blooming
I met in Glenavon's gay, glittering hall
And high rose my heart, ambition a**uming
To dance with the damsel, the bloom of the ball
Oh, daughter of Megan, look not so alluring
On a youth that his hope with thy hand must resign
That now the sad pang of despair is enduring
For the splender thou lov'st can never be mine
Go, daughter of Megan, to castles of splender
Each eye that beholds thee, thy presence shall bless
And the delicate mind feel a pa**ion more tender
On thy beauties to gaze than another's possess
But daughter of Megan, tomorrow I'm going
On ocean to sail, where the rude billows roar
I feel my heart with affliction o'erflowing
For perhaps I may gaze on your beauties no more
The daughter of Megan, so lovely and blooming
I met in Glenavon's gay, glittering hall
And high rose my heart, ambition a**uming
To dance with the damsel, the bloom of the ball
