To the lowlands of Holland

It is a place of residence

Leave off your sore lament

Is there ne'r a man in Ireland

There are men enough in Ireland

    D             A        Bm

No combs all in my hair

For to shade my beauty fair

And neither will I marry

  D       A     Bm
Until the day I die

      D              A      G
Since high winds and stormy seas

     D         A        D
Have parted me love and I
