the irish brigade – the dying rebel lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
the night was dark
the fight had ended
the moon shone down o’connell street
i stood alone
where brave men perish
now they’ve gone
their god to meet

[chorus]
my only son was shot in dublin
fighting for his country bold
he fought for ireland
and ireland only
the harp and shamrock, green white and gold

[verse 2]
first i met a crying mother
kneeling by her young son’s side
i heard her say:
“my son’s (???)
i knew my son would never (???)”

[verse 3]
the next i met the grey haired father
searching for his only son
i said “down (???)
when there’s no usе searching
for straight to heaven your son has gonе”
[chorus]
and my only son was shot in dublin
fighting for his country bold
he fought for ireland and ireland only
the harp, the shamrock, green white and gold

[verse 4]
the last i met was a dying rebel
kneeling o’er, i heard him say
“god bless my home in belfast city
god bless the cause for which i die”

[chorus]
my only son was shot in dublin
fighting for his country bold
he fought for ireland and ireland only
the harp, the shamrock, green white and gold
