the davitts - soldier's song lyrics

we’ll sing a song, a soldier’s song
with cheering rousing chorus
as round our blazing fires we throng
the starry heavens o’er us;
impatient for the coming fight
and as we wait the morning’s light
here in the silence of the night
we’ll chant a soldier’s song

chorus:
soldiers are we
whose lives are pledged to ireland;
some have come
from a land beyond the wave
sworn to be free
no more our ancient sire land
shall shelter the despot or the slave
tonight we man the gap of danger
in erin’s cause, come woe or weal
“mid cannons” roar and rifles peal
we’ll chant a soldier’s song
in valley green, on towering crag
our fathers fought before us
and conquered ‘neath the same old flag
that’s proudly floating o’er us
we’re children of a fighting race
that never yet has known disgrace
and as we march, the foe to face
we’ll chant a soldier’s song
chorus
