How soft is the moon on Glengariff | B |
The rocks seem to melt with the light | C |
Oh would I were there with dear Fanny | D |
To tell her that love is as bright | C |
And nobly the sun of July | A |
O'er the waters of Adragoole shines | E |
Oh would that I saw the green banner | F |
Blaze there over conquering lines | E |

Oh love is more fair than the moonlight | C |
And glory more grand than the sun | G |
And there is no rest for a brave heart | H |
Till its bride and its laurels are won | G |
But next to the burst of our banner | F |
And the smile of dear Fanny I crave | B |
The moon on the rocks of Glengariff | B |
The sun upon Adragoole's wave | B |
