the barleycorn - bring them home lyrics

[verse 1]
well in the jail that held mcsweeney
in the prison where he died
lies two daughters of old éire
and they fill my heart with pride
for i know that england wishes
that we let them die alone
but all the voices in old ireland
cries for us to bring them home

[chorus]
hear it ring on the air
it’s the voice of my country so fair
can’t you feel, can’t you see
irish men will set them free

[verse 2]
it was the love of dear old ireland
that brought them to that prison h+ll
but the ghosts of pearsе and connolly
fill their lonely prison cell
clarkе and plunkett stand beside them
mcdonagh, mcdermot and wolfe tone
all the voices of old ireland
cry out for us to bring them home
[chorus]
hear it ring on the air
it’s the voice of my country so fair
can’t you feel, can’t you see
irish men will set them free

[verse 3]
so i pray you men of ireland
don’t betray our daughters true
proudly stand behind our heroes
lest they die for me and you
and though the tyrant may deny us
we can break their hearts of stone
and all of ireland will be singing
when we bring our daughters home

[chorus]
hear it ring on the air
it’s the voice of my country so fair
can’t you feel, can’t you see
irish men will set them free

hear it ring on the air
it’s the voice of my country so fair
can’t you feel, can’t you see
irish men will set them free
