[Verse 1]
I am thinking tonight of a face fair to see,
Of a coleen who loves me I know.
Tho' she's far far away she is near me today,
Every breeze seems to sigh soft and low.

[Refrain]
When the moon shines in Ireland, I'll be with you once more,
and we'll love as we loved my sweet coleen asthore.
You're the lass that I love Your the one that I adore,
When the moon shines in Ireland I'll be with you once more.


[Verse 2]
Erin boasts of it's coleens the fairest on earth,
Who can love with a love that is true.
But there's none in that wonderful land of my birth,
That's comparing my coleen with you.

[Refrain]
When the moon shines in Ireland, I'll be with you once more,
and we'll love as we loved my sweet coleen asthore.
You're the lass that I love Your the one that I adore,
When the moon shines in Ireland I'll be with you once more.
