tommy makem - o'donnell abu lyrics

proudly the note of the trumpet is sounding
loudly the war cries arise on the gale
fleetly the steed by lough sw-lly is bounding
to join the thick squadrons on saimer’s green vale
on every mountaineer, strangers to flight or fear
rush to the standard of dauntless red hugh
bonnaught and gallowgl-ss, throng from each mountain
p-ss onward for erin o’donnell abu
princely o’neill to our aid is advancing
with many a chieftain and warrior clan
a thousand proud steeds in his vanguard are prancing

‘neath the borderers brave from the banks of the bann
many a heart shall quail under its coat of mail
deeply the merciless foeman shall rue
when on his ears shall ring bourn on the breeze’s wing
tir conwell’s dread war cry, o’donnell abu
wildly o’er desmond the war wolf is howling
fearless the eagle sweeps over the plain
the fox in the streets of the city is prowling
and all who would scare them are banished or slain
on with o’donnall then, fight the old fight again
sons of tir conwell are valiant and true
make the proud saxon feel erin’s avenging steel
strike for your country o’donnell abu
