lirik lagu seamus mcllwaine – the irish brigade
along erin’s border, the news greatly spread
another foul ambush, a volunteer dead
oh, sad were our hearts as we whispered the name
for that brave freedom fighter was called mcelwaine
through the fields of fermanagh and the hills of tyrone
through cavan and leitrim, your exploits were known
those cowardly crown forces, they cringed at your name
they had cause to remember the bold mcelwaine
[chorus]
we salute you, brave séamus; it’s a soldier’s farewell
our grief at your passing, these words cannot tell
your lifeblood for ireland did not flow in vain
with hughes and o’hanlon now stands mcelwaine
your love for your country, you could not restrain
that patriot’s fever, it burned in your veins
you answered the call for to fight ireland’s foe
and you made england pay for eight hundred years’ woe
in those cages of h*block, you never gave in
though they stripped you and beat you, they never could win
you inspired the lads of the bold thirty*eight
long kesh couldn’t hold you, you smashed through the gate
[chorus]
we salute you, brave séamus; it’s a soldier’s farewell
our grief at your passing, these words cannot tell
your lifeblood for ireland did not flow in vain
with hughes and o’hanlon now stands mcelwaine
on that dark april morning, near the breaking of day
the s.a.s. waited in a field near roslea
with seán lynch, your brave comrade, you were wounded and k!lled
when they found who they’d captured, you were tortured and k!lled
round your monaghan home, all the black flags did wave
in thousands we followed, to honour to your grave
your comrades in arms marched with you all the way
it was a final farewell from the bold i.r.a
[chorus]
we salute you, brave séamus; it’s a soldier’s farewell
our grief at your passing, these words cannot tell
your lifeblood for ireland did not flow in vain
with hughes and o’hanlon now stands mcelwaine
