A Soldiers 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
Sons of the Gael! Men of
the Pale!
The long watched day is breaking
The serried ranks of
Inisfail
Shall set the Tyrant quaking
Our camp fires now are
burning low
See in the east a silv'ry glow
Out yonder waits the
Saxon foe
So chant a soldier's song
Chorus
