My Lovely Rose of Clare: Written by Chris Ball in the late 20th century. A romantic ballad comparing a beloved woman to the beauty of County Clare.
Oh, my lovely rose of Clare
You’re the sweetest girl I know
You’re the Queen of all the roses
And the pretty flowers that grow
You are the sunshine of my life
So beautiful and fair
And I will always love you
My lovely rose of Clare
Oh, the sun it shines out like a jewel
On the lovely hills of Clare
As I walked along with my sweet love
One evening at the fair
Her eyes they shine like silvеr streams
Her long and golden hair
And I havе won the heart of one
My lovely rose of Clare
Oh, my lovely rose of Clare
You’re the sweetest girl I know
You’re the Queen of all the roses
My lovely rose of Clare
Oh, my lovely rose of Clare
You’re the sweetest girl I know
You’re the Queen of all the roses
Oh, my lovely rose of Clare
