seven men - francie brolly & anne brolly lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
for countless years true irishmen have lived in slavery
then seven men with burning souls had a dream of ireland free
they saw the green flag flying o’er the likes of me and you
and with their hearts they gave their lives to make their dream come true

[verse 2]
connolly saw oppression’s twin the curse of poverty
the unpaid serf, the hungry child, despair and misery
his vision was of better times for thе likes of me and you
and for that cause hе fought and died, what more could one man do?

[verse 3]
as the kindling breeze of liberty swept softly o’er this land
macdonagh, pe*rs* and plunkett felt its stirring strong and grand
these learned men left book and pen for the likes of me and you
and by the sword they pledged their word to free their rushing [?]

[verse 4]
brave sean macdermott battled on in sickness and in pain
to march with kent, to follow clarke, and conquer for sinn fein
at eastertide they all three died for the likes of me of and you
faced british might to bring the light of freedom shining through

[verse 5]
though many years have passed since then, true men remember still
those seven men and seven more who lie in arbour hill
the very name of pe*rs* must shame the likes of me and you
who stand and stare and will not dare to do what we should do
