Oh if I was the king
I would make you the queen
I would roll you in my arms where the meadows are green
I would roll you in my arms
Lay you down to rest
Beside my Irish fairy in the magpie's nest
For the magpie's nest is a cottage neat and clean
And it stands beside the Shannon where the meadows are green
And I never saw a princess
With beauty such as this
My little Irish fairy in the magpie's nest
