Irish Folksongs - A soldiers song

Tekst :

We ll sing a song, a soldier s song
With cheering rousing chorus
As round our blazing fires we throng
The starry heavens o er us
Impatient for the coming fight
And as we wait the morning s light
Here in the silence of the night
We ll chant a soldier s song

Chorus:
Soldiers are we
whose lives are pledged to Ireland
Some have come
from a land beyond the wave
Sworn to be free
No more our ancient sire land
Shall shelter the despot or the slave
Tonight we man the gap of danger
In Erin s cause, come woe or weal
Mid cannons roar and rifles peal
We ll chant a soldier s song

In valley green, on towering crag
Our fathers fought before us
And conquered neath the same old flag
That s proudly floating o er us
We re children of a fighting race
That never yet has known disgrace
And as we march, the foe to face
We ll chant a soldier s song

Chorus

Sons of the Gael! Men of the Pale!
The long watched day is breaking
The serried ranks of Inisfail
Shall set the Tyrant quaking
Our camp fires now are burning low
See in the east a silv ry glow
Out yonder waits the Saxon foe
So chant a soldier s song

Chorus

Inne utwory

  • The cliffs of doneen
  • A pair of brown eyes
  • A bunch of thyme
  • Courtin in the kitchen
  • A rainy night in soho
  • The bold odonohue
  • The bold Fenian men
  • A little bit of heaven
  • A man you dont meet every day
  • Black is the colour
  • Amhrn na bhfiann
  • Black and tans
  • Back home in Derry
  • Bold Robert Emmet
  • Believe me if all
  • The boys of killybegs
  • Comical genius
  • A trace boy on ligoniel hill
  • Losowe utwory

    The war

    The ocean is on fire
    the sky turned dark again as the boats came in
    and the beaches streatched out with soldiers
    With theirs arms and guns it had just begun

    Believe, do you want this?
    Believe, do I want this too!?
    Why won t you tell me that it s almost over?
    Why must this tear...

    I like it

    I hate the treadmill everyday
    I hate the mundane things they say
    The boredom sets in nine to five
    At night that s when I come alive

    I long to be effected
    The bright lights beckoning,
    Beckoning to...
