[verse 1]
and did you go to see the show?
each rose and pink a dilly, o!
to feast your eyes, upon the prize
won by the orange lily o!

[chorus]
(then) heigh+eigh+ho! the lily o!
the royal, loyal lily, o
beneath the sky, what flower can vie?
with erin’s orange lily o!

[verse 2]
the viceroy there, so debonair
just like a daffadilly, o!
with lady clarke, blithe as a lark
approached the orange lily o!

[chorus]
(then) heigh+eigh+ho! the lily o!
the royal, loyal lily, o
beneath the sky, what flower can vie?
with erin’s orange lily o!

[verse 3]
thеn starting back, he cried good luck
some said hе looked quite silly, o!
oh, deed of woe, must i bestow
the prize upon the lily o!
[chorus]
(then) heigh+eigh+ho! the lily o!
the royal, loyal lily, o
beneath the sky, what flower can vie?
with erin’s orange lily o!

[verse 4]
the lowland fields may roses yield
beneath the highland hilly, o!
but high or low, no flower can show
like erin’s orange lily o!

[chorus]
(then) heigh+eigh+ho! the lily o!
the royal, loyal lily, o
beneath the sky, what flower can vie?
with erin’s orange lily o!

[verse 5]
let dandies fine in bond street shine
g+y nymphs, in piccadilly, o!
but fine or g+y must yield the day
to erin’s orange lily o!

[chorus]
(then) heigh+ho! the lily o!
the royal, loyal lily, o
beneath the sky, what flower can vie?
with erin’s orange lily o!
[verse 6]
then come brave boys, and share her joys
and toast the health of , o!
who bravely won, on boyne’s red shore
the royal, orange lily o!

[chorus]
(then) heigh+eigh+ho! the lily o!
the royal, loyal lily, o
beneath the sky, what flower can vie?
with erin’s orange lily o!
