[00:00.000] 作曲 : Traditional [00:04.65]Attend you gallant Irishmen and listen for a while [00:09.15]I'll sing to you the praises of the sons of Erin's Isle [00:13.26]It's of those gallant heroes who voluntarily ran [00:17.39]To release two Irish shamrocks from an English prison van [00:21.71]The eighteenth of September,it was in that dreadful year [00:26.42]When sorrow and excitement ran throughout all Lancashire [00:30.25]At a gathering of the Irish boys they volunteered each man [00:34.53]To release those Irish prisoners out of the prison van [00:39.05]Hurrah!My lads for freedom,let's all join heart and hand [00:43.15]May the Lord have mercy on the boys that helped to smash the van [00:47.64]In Manchester one morning those good heroes did agree [00:52.24]Their leaders,Kelly and Deasy,should have their liberty [00:56.52]They drank a health to Ireland,and soon made up a plan [01:00.52]To meet the prisoners on the road and take and smash the van [01:05.00]Hurrah!My lads for freedom,let's all join heart and hand [01:08.96]May the Lord have mercy on the boys that helped to smash the van [01:13.74]With courage bold those heroes went and soon the van did stop [01:17.99]They cleared the guards from back and front and then smashed in the top [01:21.96]But in blowing open of the lock,they chanced to kill a man [01:26.25]So three must die on the scaffold high for smashing of the van [01:31.09]Hurrah!My lads for freedom,let's all join heart and hand [01:35.00]May the Lord have mercy on the boys that helped to smash the van [01:39.73]So now kind friends I will conclude,I think it would be right [01:43.93]That all true-hearted Irishmen together should unite [01:48.36]Together should sympathise,my friends,and do the best we can [01:52.28]To keep the memories ever green of the boys that smashed the van [01:57.06]Hurrah!My lads for freedom,let's all join heart and hand [02:01.04]May the Lord have mercy on the boys that helped to smash the van
