Leprechaun, Leprechaun Leprechaun, leprechaun, fly across the sea And fetch an emerald shamrock for you and me. Do not bring a nettle or a thistle for a joke, But bring an Irish shamrock, for we are Irish folk. And you and I, my leprechaun, will wear the shamrock gay, And match it with an Irish smile upon St. Patrick's Day!
Leprechaun Leprechauns peeking,Around a willow tree,Pussy willows waking,Longing to be free.Colleens and shamrocksAnd castles old and gray,Put them all togetherTo make St. Patrick's Day.
