[Bb]
One evening [Ab] for pleasure [Eb] I [Bb] rambled to view the [Eb] fair [Ab] fields [Bb] all alone
just down [Ab] by the banks of [Bb] Green Aran where beauty [Ab] and pleasure [Eb] are known.
And the fair [Ab] maid I spied at [Eb] her [Bb] labors which caused me [Ab] to stay for a [Bb] while.
I thought [Ab] her the goddess of [Bb] beauty, the [Fm] blooming [Ab] bright star of [Eb] Belle Isle.
I humbled [Ab] myself [Bb] to her beauty.
Fair maiden [Ab] where do [Bbm] you belong?
Are [Ab] you from the heavens [Bb] descended
[Bbm] [Ab] abiding in Cupid's [Eb] fair throne?
Young man [Ab] I will tell [Bb] you a secret.
It is true I [Ab] am a maid [Bb] that is poor
but apart from [Ab] my vow [Bb] and my promise there's more than [Ab] my heart can [Eb] endure.
So here I'll [Ab] remain at [Eb] my [Bb] labors and suffer [Ab] all hardships and [Bb] toil
and wait [Ab] for the lad [Bb] that has left me [Fm] all [Ab] alone on the banks of [Eb] Belle Isle.
[Bb] Young maiden [Ab] I mean not [Bb] to venture.
It is true [Ab] I came here in [Bb] disguise
but [Fm] I came [Ab] to fulfill my last [Bb] promise [F] and hoped [Ab] to give you a [Eb] surprise.
[Bb] For I vow you're [Ab] the maid I [Eb] love [Bb] dearly.
You've been in [Ab] my heart [Bb] all the while.
For [Fm] [Ab] me there is no other [Bb] damsel than [Fm] the [Ab] blooming bright star of [Eb] Belle Isle.
Now [Bb] when this [Ab] young couple [Eb] are [Bb] married and walk through [Ab] this life [Bb] hand in hand
may the great [Ab] God in heaven [Bb] protect them and [Fm] bring them [Ab] all peace [Eb] in the land.
May [Bb] the great God in [Ab] heaven [Bb] protect them and loyalty [Ab] be theirs [Bb] all the while
[Fm] and [Ab] honey sweeten the [Bb] comforts of the blooming [Ab] bright star of [Eb] Belle Isle.
