I am a Irish man,
Irish and proud to be,
Let no British Hun with their tommy gun,
Make a slave of me.

For freedom's rights,
I will fight,
Freedom for Irish men,
And let England see that we will be,
A nation once again.

The world is watch H-Block,
And our heroes who suffer there,
They were abused still they refused,
Those prison clothes to wear.

On the blanket they did lie,
On hunger strike they died,
They chose to assert their claim,
And let the world see that we would be,
A nation once again.

Portlaoise is where they cage our men,
But their spirits they can not quell,
Castlerea is where they torture them,
H-Block is truly hell.

England must retreat,
The Provos can't be beat,
Our truth is our ten brave men,
Hear the people shout, (Brits out!)
And a nation once again.

So, England you heed my warning,
You know that it's to late,
Can't you see that Ireland will be free,
You have bread nothing but hate.

We will not compromise with British lies,
Victory complete is our aim,
England we defy,
Hear old Ireland cry,
And a nation once again.

A nation once again,
A nation once again,
And Ireland long a province be ,
A nation once again.

A nation once again,
A nation once again,
England we defy,
Hear old Ireland cry,
And a nation once again.
