Fair old pride for the county I was called upon to lead
Was born and bred with a brazen head by a wild Atlantic sea
Through fear we ride, and death we stride and face a life of toil
We're marching on where we belong, on Ireland's rugged soil
So run and power on
And power on and follow me
I'll bring you to the light, in through the fight
As men, we live and bleed
So, fear, be gone, and blood be on
Our tweed and garments wore
And men will pray and rue the day
They hear the Irish roar
Love Ireland, bleed Ireland, live Ireland, breathe Ireland
Lift Ireland, lead Ireland, be I-R-E-L-A-N-D
Ireland, bleed Ireland, live Ireland, breathe Ireland
Lift Ireland, lead Ireland, be I-R-E-L-A-N-D
(Glóir! Croí! Grá! Éire!)
We are but land and grit and sand
And fog and stone and flame
Our spirit wakes in crashing lakes
And songs without a name
From Clare to Down, from hill to town
The bloodline runs afar
And every grave where good men lay
Shall guide us through the dark
So rise and power on
And power on and follow me
I'll lead you to the light, in through the fight
As men, we shall but lead
Our mothers weep, their sorrows deep
But know the cause is true
For every son that bears a gun
A thousand more will do
Love Ireland, bleed Ireland, live Ireland, breathe Ireland
Lift Ireland, lead Ireland, be I-R-E-L-A-N-D
Ireland, bleed Ireland, live Ireland, breathe Ireland
Lift Ireland, lead Ireland, be I-R-E-L-A-N-D
Ireland, bleed Ireland, live Ireland, breathe Ireland
Lift Ireland, lead Ireland, be I-R-E-L-A-N-D
Ireland, bleed Ireland, live Ireland, breathe Ireland
Lift Ireland, lead Ireland, be I-R-E-L-A-N-D
