Lyrics

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Anonymous Unknown
[00:16.987] The war trumpets sounded, our rights are in danger
[00:20.724] Shall the brave sons of Erin be deaf to their call
[00:25.576] When, freedom demands of both naitive and stranger
[00:28.987] Their aid, lest the greatest of nations should fall
[00:33.641] Shall this banner so dear to the exiled of the gael
[00:37.239] By traitors or rebels in anarchy's school
[00:45.170] Be dragged through the dust and disgraced in the vale
[00:48.345] While our people the sovereign inequity rule
[00:56.865] No I swear by the love that we bear dear ould Ireland
[01:00.579] And the vows we have pledged to the home of the free
[01:05.380] As we'd sheath our swords in the foes of dear Ireland
[01:08.691] We'll use them as freely against traitors to thee
[01:13.586] Need we fear for our cause as bold hearts up hold it
[01:16.948] See the men of all nations now march to the war
[01:24.732] May Erins stout heart stand by and behold them
[01:28.279] Nor strike in their might for the banner of star
[02:09.721] No no, with their life's blood they'll guard the rich treasure
[02:13.322] See how they respond to the call "shoulder arms!"
[02:18.082] Though endeared by those sacred ties with love beyond measure
[02:21.906] Oh bosoms-friends, children, and beauty's sweet charms
[02:26.298] Yet they they leave all behind and equip for the battle
[02:29.884] Between freedom and rapien like true sons of mars
[02:37.484] They'll conquer the traitors their cannon may rattle
[02:40.930] And bring back triumphant the banner of stars
[02:48.687] Oh, long may our flags wave in union together
[02:52.045] And the harp of green Erin still kiss the same breeze
[02:56.856] And brave ev'ry storm the becloud the fair weather
[03:00.273] Till our harp like the stars, flies o'er rivers and seas
[03:05.076] God prosper the bold heart on both land and the ocean
[03:08.622] Who go in defiance of danger and scars
[03:16.269] And send them safe home to their wives and their sweethearts
[03:19.730] With the harp of old erin and banner of stars
