In Armagh and in Derry in Antrim and in Down The North Gael is rising to bring down the Crown Once more the old war cry and the blood running high We'll fight for true Ireland for today we will die Ireland united Gaelic and free Land of my birth in freedom you'll be From New York and Chicago in Sydney and in Perth The Gaelic storm is growing it's sweeping across the earth To serve the Queen or Kremlin in freedom we shall dwell And to try to step in England's shoes we'll see them all in hell Ireland united Gaelic and free Land of my birth we're born to be free The banshee's mournful whisper of an old lost battle scene The true Gael's blood is falling to preserve our ancient green The day of the slaver will no longer be And when Gaels stand united they'll always be free Ireland united Gaelic and free Land of my birth in freedom you'll be Is there any mind so yellow is there any heart so black Can stand and watch their country torn apart on England's rack Remember now in Belfast good men will fight and die To keep the shining vision alive and burning high Ireland united Gaelic and free Shining in splendour our true destiny Ireland united Gaelic and free Shining in splendour our true destiny
