kevin lynch - the irish brigade lyrics
[verse 1]
your friends around dungiven town
they miss you, kevin, still
your memory lingers in their hearts
we know it always will
your sacrifice fans up the flames
that never will be drowned
so you are gone, we’ll struggle on
for the harp without a crown
[chorus]
let touts and traitors do their worst
our flag we’ll still hold high
we have men yet like kevin lynch
who will not stand idly by
[verse 2]
in childhood years you saw the rise
of your people from their knees
demanding only civil rights
they were beaten savagеly
on that dark derry sunday
fourteen brave men shot down
through irеland’s woe your love did grow
for the harp without a crown
[chorus]
let touts and traitors do their worst
our flag we’ll still hold high
we have men yet like kevin lynch
who will not stand idly by
[verse 3]
fight on you irish volunteers
for victory is sure!
we’ll drive the strangers from our land
we’ll free our native shore
the world will see that ireland free
will be our battlecry
while we have men like kevin lynch
who will not stand idly by
[chorus]
let touts and traitors do their worst
our flag we’ll still hold high
we have men yet like kevin lynch
who will not stand idly by
we have men yet like kevin lynch
who will not stand idly by
