lirik lagu gallipoli – fureys
i remember the day it stands clear in my mind
we stood down to dun laoighaire to wave you goodbye
your ma was quietly weeping, there was a tear in my eye
as they sent you to gallipoli to die.
you looked so young as you stood there with a glint in
your eye
and you sang rebel songs as the streamers flew high
your ma turned away and i heard her sigh
for you are sailing to gallipoli to die
you were all that we had, your mammy and me,
when you marched head erect you were proud as could be
and it killed your poor ma, and it slowly killed me
when you were blown to kingdom come on the sh-r-s of
gallipoli.
we got only the one letter and we knew right away
it said deepest regrets your son was bold and he was
brave
you were only 18 yet your mammy and i
let you go to gallipoli to die
you were all that we had, your mammy and me,
when you marched head erect you were proud as could be
and it killed your poor ma, and it slowly killed me
when you were blown to kingdom come on the sh-r-s of
gallipoli.
you fought for the wrong country, you died for the
wrong cause.
and your ma often said that it was ireland’s great loss
all those fine young men who marched to foreign sh-r-s
to fight the war
when the greatest war of all was at home
you were all that we had, your mammy and me,
when you marched head erect you were proud as could be
and it killed your poor ma, and it slowly killed me
when you were blown to kingdom come on the sh-r-s of
gallipoli.
you were all that we had, your mammy and me,
when you marched head erect you were proud as could be
and it killed your poor ma, and it slowly killed me
when you were blown to kingdom come on the sh-r-s of
gallipoli.
