farewell to dublin (1983 version) - the wolfe tones lyrics

to the city of our fathers, where friend and foe have gathered
where the norman, dane and saxon had mingled with the gael
administered the kingdom but soon the pale was reelin’
to cradle irish freedom in dear old dublin town

[chorus]
fare thee well until we meet again, down by the liffey water
i’ll bid farewell to dublin and her streets of cobblestones
i’m goin’ away to leave you, me friends and all the girls too
till i return to see you, farewell old dublin town
now hеr poets, they werе many, her writers, they were plenty
there was swift with all his little folk and joyce and molly bloom
her characters an unsung gang, there’s forty coats and ol’ bang bang
and zozimus who always sang of dear old dublin town

i remember in my childhood, your mountains and your wild wood
i’d heard about your heroes in the classroom as a boy
of thomas street where emmet died
in sackville place they fought with pride
of the times when brave wolfe tone did ride
in dear old dublin town

- the wolfe tones lyrics
