Lyrics:

[Verse 1]

One evening for pleasure I rambled to view

The fair fields all alone

Down by the banks of Loch Eiron

Where beauty and pleasure were known

[Verse 2]

I spied a fair maid at her labour

Which caused me to stay for a while

And I thought of a goddess to beauty

Bloomin' bright star of Bright Isle

[Verse 3]

I humbled myself to her beauty

"Fair maiden, where do you belong?

Are you from heaven descended

Abiding in Cupid's fair throne?"

[Verse 4]

"Young man, I will tell you a secret

It's true I'm a maid that is poor

And to part from my vows and my promise

Is more than my heart can endure

[Verse 5]

Therefore I remain at my service

And go through all my hardship and toil

And wait for the lad that has left me

All alone on the banks of Belle Isle."

[Verse 6]

"Young maiden I wish not to banter

It's true I come here in disguise

I came here to fulfill our last promise

And hope to give you a surprise

[Verse 7]

I've known you're a maid I love dearly

And you've been in my heart all the while

For me there is no other damsel

Than my blooming bright star of Belle Isle."
