The Irish Brigade - Mairéad Farrell lyrics

Artist: The Irish Brigade

album: Unrepentant Fenians EP


Oh, do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
Oh, do not stand at my grave and cry
When Ireland lives I do not die
A woman's place is not at home
The fight for freedom, it still goes on
I took up my gun until freedoms day
I pledged to fight for the I.R.A.
In Armagh jails I served my time
Strip searches were a British crime
Degraded me but they could not see
I suffered this to see Ireland free
Gibraltar's Rocks, the place I died
McCann and Savage were by my side
I heard the order so loud and shrill
Of Thatcher's voice, saying: "Shoot to kill"
But do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
Oh, do not stand at my grave and cry
When Ireland lives I do not die
Oh, do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
Oh, do not stand at my grave and cry
When Ireland lives I do not die
When Ireland lives I do not die
