Lyrics

  1. Oh! my heart’s in a whirl, over one little girl
    I love her, I love her, yes, I do
    Although her heart is far away
    I hope to make her mine some day
    Every beautiful rose, every violet knows
    I love her, I lover her fond and true
    And her heart fondly sighs, as I sing to her eyes
    Her eyes of blue, sweet eyes of blue, my darling

Refrain
Peg o’ my heart, I love you
We’ll never part, I love you
Dear little girl, sweet little girl
Sweeter than the rose of Erin
Are your winning smiles endearin’
Peg o’ my heart, your glances
With Irish art, entrance us
Come, be my own
Come, make your home in my heart

  1. When your hearts full of fears
    And your eyes full of tears
    I’ll kiss them, I’ll kiss them all away
    For, like the gold that’s in your hair
    Is all the love for you I bear
    O, believe in me, do, I’m as lonesome as you
    I miss you, I miss you all the day
    Let the light of love shine from your eyes into mine
    And shine for aye, sweetheart for aye, my darling
