One pleasant Summer’s morning
when all the flowers were springing O,
Nature was adorning and the wee
birds sweetly singing O,
I met my love near Banbridge town,
my charming blue-eyed Sally O,
She's the queen of the County Down
the flower of Magherally O,

With admiration I did gaze
upon this blue-eyed maiden O,
Adam wasn’t half so much plazed,
when he met Eve in Eden O,
Her skin was like the lily white,
that grows in yonder valley O,
She's my queen and my heart's delight
the flower of Magherally O,

Her yellow hair in ringlets clung,
her shoes were Spanish leather O,
Her bonnet with blue ribbons [bad word] her scarlet cap and feather O,
Like Venus bright she did appear
my charming blue-eyed Sally O,
She's the girl that I adore
the flower of Magherally O,

I hope the day will [bad word] 
when we’ll join hands together O,
It's then I'll bring my darling home,
in spite of wind or weather O,
And let them all say what they will,
and let them reel and rally O,
For I shall wed the girl I love,
the flower of Magherally O.
