Barnhall’s Anthem

Come over the hills my bonny irish lass
Come over the hills to your darling
You choose the road, love, and I’ll take the bower
And I’ll be your true love forever

Chorus
Blue is the rose that in yonder garden grows
and fair is the lilly – of – the – valley
Clear is the water that flows from the rye
and our love for BARNHALL is forever

It was down by Killarney’s green woods that we strayed
Where the moon and the stars, they were shining
The moon shone its rays, on her locks of golden hair
and you said, you’d be my love forever

Chorus
Blue is the rose that in yonder garden grows
and fair is the lilly – of – the – valley
Clear is the water that flows from the rye
and our love for BARNHALL is forever

It’s not for the parting of my sister Kate
It’s not for the grief of her mother
It’s all for the loss of my bonny Irish Lass
And she swore she’d be my love forever

Chorus
Blue is the rose that in yonder garden grows
and fair is the lilly – of – the – valley
Clear is the water that flows from the rye
and our love for BARNHALL is forever
