| [00:04.845] | How many more must die now how many must we lose |
| [00:13.728] | Until the island people their own destiny can choose |
| [00:23.315] | From immortal Robert Emmet to Bobby Sands MP |
| [00:32.063] | Who was given thirty thousand votes while in captivity |
| [00:40.982] | He was a poet and a soldier he died courageously |
| [00:50.260] | And we gave him thirty thousand votes while in captivity |
| [01:01.709] | Thomas Ashe gave everything in 1917 1917 |
| [01:10.354] | The Lord Mayor of Cork McSwiney died for freedom to obtain |
| [01:18.972] | Never a one of all our dead died more courageously |
| [01:27.501] | Than young Bobby Sands from Twinbrook the people’s own MP |
| [01:36.265] | He was a poet and a soldier he died courageously |
| [01:45.379] | And we gave him thirty thousand votes while in captivity |
| [01:56.506] | No more he’ll hear the lark’s sweet notes upon the Ulster air |
| [02:05.245] | Or gaze upon the snowflake to calm his deep despair |
| [02:13.461] | Before he went on hunger strike young Bobby did compose |
| [02:22.193] | The Rhythm of Time, The Weeping Wind and The Sleeping Rose 《 |
| [02:30.600] | He was a poet and a soldier he died courageously |
| [02:39.259] | And we gave him thirty thousand votes while in captivity |
| [02:50.410] | Forever we’ll remember him that man who died in pain |
| [02:58.785] | That his country north and south be united once again |
| [03:07.154] | To mourn him is to organise and build a movement strong |
| [03:16.381] | With ballot box and armalite and with music and with our songs |
| [03:24.335] | He was a poet and a soldier he died courageously |
| [03:32.841] | And we gave him thirty thousand votes while in captivity |
| [03:41.421] | Oh the poet and the soldier he died courageously |
| [03:50.193] | And we gave him 30, 000 votes while in captivity |
| [00:04.845] | How many more must die now how many must we lose |
| [00:13.728] | Until the island people their own destiny can choose |
