[E]
Hello to shiny [B] Thiginny.
Close by the window, young Eileen [E] is spinning.
Bent o'er the reel, her [A] blind grandmother [E]
sitting,
[B] is moaning and cooing and [E] grousey knitting.
O'er mebbly, jibberly, noisily whirring,
[B]
spins the wheel, springs the wheel, while the [E] foot stirring,
sprightly and lively [A] and ebbly [E] ringing,
[B] sounds the sweet voice of the young maiden [E] singing.
Eileen, a-cawing, I hear [B] someone tapping,
tis the ibid, dear mother, against [A] the glass [E] flapping.
Eileen, I [A] surely hear [E] somebody crying,
tis [B] the sound, mother dear, of the autumn [E] winds dying.
O'er mebbly, jibberly, [B] noisily whirring,
spins the wheel, springs the wheel, while the [E] foot stirring,
sprightly and lively [A] and ebbly [E] ringing,
sounds [B] the sweet voice of the young maiden [E] singing.
There's a form at the casement, the form [B] of her true love,
he whispers with face bent, I'm waiting [E] for you love.
Step up on the stool, through [A] the latte [E] lightly,
[B] and we'll rove while the moon's [E] shining brightly.
O'er mebbly, jibberly, noisily [B] whirring,
spins the wheel, springs the wheel, while the [E] foot stirring,
sprightly and lively [A] and [E] ebbly ringing,
[B] sounds the sweet voice of the young maiden [E] singing.
The maid shakes her head to her lips, [B] lays her fingers,
leaps up from the stool, longs to go, [A] and yet [E] lingers.
A frightened glance turns [A] to her [E] drowsy grandmother,
[C] puts [B] one foot on the stool, spins the wheel [E] with the other.
O'er mebbly, jibberly, noisily [B] whirring,
lower and slower is [E] heard the reel's whirring,
noises and light [Ab] through the [A] latte.
[E]
The maid [B] still leaps to the arms [E] of her lover,
slower and slower and slower [B] the wheel turns,
lower and lower [E] is heard the wheel and the reel,
[A] stop their spinning [E] and moving through the [B] grove,
the young lovers by moonlight are [E] moving.
