Her journey in life from Mallow took her far away
In Richmond in Melbourne by the Yarra she lived her last night and day
A widow in her nineteies she was married to an Australian man
Quite a likable person the beautiful Ann
Of a beautiful person the memories with me remain
One that i will never see in the flesh again
She used to talk of where into a young woman she did grow
The Town in north Cork where the Blackwater flow
So much good in her lifetime Ann of Mallow did do
She worked as a nurse in London when the bombs were falling there in World War Two
A woman who had been through her own earthly hell
Of the horrors of war she had many stories to tell
A few years ago sadly she passed away
And at peace forever far from Mallow she does lay.
