[Verse]
Show me the man who does not love the land where he was born,
Who does not look on it with pride, no matter how forlorn,
I only know that I love mine and long again for to see,
Our ancient tyrants banished and Ireland once more free.

[Chorus]
Let friends all turn against me,
Let the folk say what they will,
But my heart is with my country,
I love old Ireland still.

[Verse]
You'll find no greater land than that, if you search the world wide,
Although she's laughed at and despised, because her offspring's poor,
But if her sons could only get the wealth beneath her soil,
They once again would prosper and live by honest toil.

[Chorus]
Let friends all turn against me,
Let the folk say what they will,
But my heart is with my country,
I love old Ireland still.

[Verse]
There's not an Irishman today who'd ever wish to roam,
Unto a foreign land to live if he could work at home,
So give to us our liberty, let our banners be unfurled,
in Ireland then her sons will prove a credit to the world.

[Chorus]
Let friends all turn against me,
Let the folk say what they will,
But my heart is with my country,
I love old Ireland still.
