Declan Hunt - Charlie Cairns lyrics

Artist: Declan Hunt

album: Irish Revolutionary Songs, Vol. 1


Emmet and Barry and the Manchester Martyrs
A comrade have met in the bright halls above
Another young life has been laid down for Ireland
Another true heart full of faith and of love
With Barnes and McCormack he lives in our memory
And inspire us to fight on 'till Ireland is free
A friend to the faithful a foe to the traitors
That young Charlie Kerins the boy from Tralee
He spoke like a soldier he stood like a true man
When the craven condemned him to death and to shame
He followed the path of a long line of heroes
And Ireland forever shall honor his name
On a first Friday morning in the month of December
The hangman from England came over the sea
And the traitors to Ireland reaped vengeance and hatred
On young Charlie Kerins the boy from Tralee
God rest him tonight in the brightness of heaven
God strengthen each true man to walk where he led
And raise up the standard of justice and freedom
And win for the living the way of the dead
When the rule of the traitor is ended forever
And the power of their masters from sea unto sea
We will praise our brave soldier of Poblacht na hEireann
For young Charlie Kerins the boy from Tralee
