[Chorus]
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not dead, I do not sleep,
Do not stand, my grave and cry,
While Ireland lives I do not die.

[Verse]
A woman's place is not at home,
The fight for freedom still goes on,
I took up my gun and till freedom's day,
I pledged to fight for the IRA.

[Chorus]
So, do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not dead, I do not sleep,
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
While Ireland lives I do not die.

[Verse]
In Armagh jails, I served my time,
Strip searches were a British crime,
Degraded me but they could not see,
I'd suffer this to set Ireland free.

[Chorus]
So, do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not dead, I do not sleep,
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
While Ireland lives I do not die.

[Verse]
Gibraltar was the place I died,
McCann and Savage were by my side,
I heard the order so loud and shrill,
It was Thatcher's voice, saying, "Shoot to kill."

[Chorus]
So, do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not dead, I do not sleep,
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
While Ireland lives I do not die.
