Hibernia - The Wolfe Tones

[Verse]
We left our home, Hibernia, her mountains and her valleys green,
Evicted from our ancient home by the landlords evil men,
The bailiffs and the sheriffs came, the peelers and enlisted men,
With guns and bayonets fixed for war, they took our home and land.

No place to live, no place to go, the devils watched us as we starved,
With gleeful eyes and loaded guns, they took our food away,
And some escaped and got away and lived to fight anothеr day,
To Scotland, England, Americay and far Australia's shores.

[Chorus]
Well, that's alright, alright, alright, alright,
Wе're brave, resilient people,
Well, that's alright, alright, alright, alright,
The history of our land,
Well, that's alright, alright, alright, alright,
The story of the nation,
And the fighting Irish always win the day,
Hibernians, sure, we're the wind that shakes the barley,
Hibernians, sure, we're the Mollies fighting justice down the mines,
Hibernians, sure, we're the Hibs of Edinburgh,
Hibernians, we're Ned Kelly, we're the Whiteboys, we're the men,
And sure, we're all sons of Erin's Isle, we're proud Hibernians.

[Verse]
We cut canals and waterways, we're the navvies building steam railways,
We're the miners in the depths of hell, in the steelworks we're the men,
We're shackled to the Tommy shops, we find ourselves in constant debt,
The company makes us buy our food from the profiteering stores.

God bless you, bold James Connolly, you fought for rights and liberty,
And the Mollies in Pennsylvania died on that scaffold tree,
They gave their lives so man could live with justice and with dignity,
We always will remember them, those brave Hibernians.

[Chorus]
Well, that's alright, alright, alright, alright,
Wе're brave, resilient people,
Well, that's alright, alright, alright, alright,
The history of our land,,
Well, that's alright, alright, alright, alright,
The story of the nation,
And the fighting Irish always win the day,
Hibernians, sure, we're the wind that shakes the barley,
Hibernians, sure, we're the Mollies fighting justice down the mines,
Hibernians, sure, we're the Hibs of Edinburgh,
Hibernians, we're Ned Kelly, we're the Whiteboys, we're the men,
And sure, we're all sons of Erin's Isle, we're proud Hibernians.
