The heavens roared and o' the heavens roared | |
And the drowning of a nation commenced | |
But now no wave impedes or flows | |
With the tears of young paddy's laments | |
Wipe the blood from you lip | |
With the flesh of your hand | |
There’s no thorn in the side | |
Left to grow | |
So lets cherish the names that were lost for an age with the ruin now the suffer must go where traditions they blend lives a home on the mend the grass glistens now for all eyes so let's sever the shame we have come to reclaim with the waters retreat feel the shore when the red rose paled lay a thousand graves many more though their ghosts still haunt for the day we've come to live for don't look back for what's dead now is saved the exiled are home where their souls were kept safe take me back on the crest of a wave no more tears for young paddy's lament no more tears no more paddy's lament | |
Rip the grief from it's heart there’s no sorrow tonight for now once banished dreams sleep divine where the silence you hear is the prosper we share the only blade is a razor sharp smile still a church bell rings to collect the sins that still roam | |
But the only thing lost is the pain | |
When nothing was more don't look back for what's dead now is saved the exiled are home where their souls were kept safe take me back on the crest of a wave no more tears for young paddy's lament no more tears no more paddy's lament | |
Grab the leaf of the branch from the tree in it's ground where these roots claim the earth many toiled to a land that now stands under no ones' command and her beauty let no man destroy so remember the gun and the damage it done the last drop has been spilled for you and | |
I let there be no despair | |
For the gloom we once shared | |
Brush the tear from the eye that still shines | |
When the red rose paled lay a thousand graves many more though their ghosts still haunt for the day we've come to live for don't look back for what's dead now is saved the exiled are home where their souls were kept safe take me back on the crest of a wave no more tears for young paddy's lament don't look back for what's dead now is saved the exiled are home where their souls were kept safe take me back on the crest of a wave no more tears for young paddy's lament no more tears for young paddy's lament no more tears no more paddy's lament |
The heavens roared and o' the heavens roared | |
