[Chorus]
"Oh, God save Ireland" said the heroes,
"God save Ireland" said they all,
Whether on the scaffolds high or the battlefield we die,
Oh, no matter when, for Erin dear we fall.

[Verse]
High upon the gallows tree, swung the noble hearted three,
By the vengeful tyrant, stricken in their bloom,
But they met him face to face with the courage of their race,
And they went with souls undaunted to their doom.

[Chorus]
"Oh, God save Ireland" said the heroes,
"God save Ireland" said they all,
Whether on the scaffolds high or the battlefield we die,
Oh, no matter when, for Erin dear we fall.
