O, farewell, Molly

Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...

O, my gun, you're so heavy,
O, my gun, you're so black,
And the day shall be so rainy.
Heavens are so far and dark.
My eyes are so icy,
So icy and blue...
You should know,
O, my prettiest Molly,
That I shall love you...

Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...

Run with me, my dear Molly,
Let's leave the open field.
Emerald eyed my Irish girly,
Field is a trap, not the shield.

Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...

Molly... Molly... Molly...
O, my Molly, dear Molly...

Your golden lashes,
Your emerald eyes,
Your golden hair -
So brightly shines...

Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...

Molly... Molly... Molly...
O, my Molly, my dear Molly...

Molly, the Easter
Shall be so red,
O, my dear Molly, I want to know
Do you love me, my Molly, or no?

Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...

Molly, do you see the heavens,
My black gun and icy eyes?
Do you see black hungry ravens?
O, Red Easter shall soon shine...

Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...

Let me say, o, Molly, let...
It will be the lost and severe fight...
O, the Easter shall be red...
And I feel the Death's sight...

Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...

You should know,
O, my prettiest Molly,
That forever I'll love you...
Forever...
But I never marry you...
But my bride is Death, you know...
You should know I have to row
To another far seashore...
To another far seashore...
And, my Molly, you and I
Never wander under sky...

Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...

O, my gun, you're so heavy,
My black gun shall never shine...
Know, my Molly, you are free...
Death is my bride and war is mine...

Molly, Molly, dear Molly
Emerald eyed my Irish girly...
I shall die in last my fight...
I'm in my Bride's cold sight...

Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la lu-u-la...
Tu-u-ura lu-u-la la-am...

Let me say, o, my Molly, ye let...
It will be the lost and severe fight
Oh, the Easter shall be red...
And I feel the Death's sight...

Don't forget me, dear Molly
Don't forget me, dear Molly
Don't forget me, dear Molly

Shall never forget you, my lad...
