beneath a single banner - the irish brigade lyrics

[verse 1]
in the county donegal, where the grass was green and tall
around the sun*kissed beaches of lichen
with the village of dungloe and the isle of arranmore
sure, for beauty, there’s no land could be richer

[verse 2]
it was there when i was young, i first heard the verses sung
of the fight against foreign imposition
of the glory and the pain, of the youths who died in vain
to save ireland, dear from partition
[verse 3]
i’ve learnt of battles fiercе, of connolly and pe*rs*
and the many, many morе who were taken
and i knew within my heart, i would surely play my part
‘ere the cause for which they died, be forsaken

[verse 4]
with my father i did go, to the hills above dungloe
where i joined a provincial division
but my father sorely paid, taken in a border raid
and shot down near omagh for sedition

[verse 5]
oh, but all has not been lost, for pe*rs*’s rebel gold
will soon march in the true irish manner
oh, for freedom is the call, till we rally one and all
united beneath a single banner!

oh, for freedom is the call, till we rally one and all
united beneath a single banner!
