Viva La Quinte Brigada - Christy Moore[00:00:00]

Ten years before I saw the light of morning[00:00:15]

A comradeship of heroes was laid[00:00:20]

From every corner of the world came sailing[00:00:25]

The Fifth International Brigade[00:00:29]

They came to stand beside the Spanish people[00:00:34]

To try and stem the rising fascist tide[00:00:39]

Franco's allies were the powerful and wealthy[00:00:44]

Frank Ryan's men came from the other side[00:00:49]

Even the olives were bleeding[00:00:55]

As the battle for Madrid it thundered on[00:00:59]

Truth and love against the force of evil[00:01:04]

Brotherhood against the fascist clan[00:01:09]

Viva la Quinta Brigada[00:01:14]

"No Pasaran" the pledge that made them fight[00:01:19]

"Adelante" is the cry around the hillside[00:01:24]

Let us all remember them tonight[00:01:29]

Bob Hilliard was a Church of Ireland pastor[00:01:34]

Form Killarney across the Pyrenees he came[00:01:39]

From Derry came a brave young Christian Brother[00:01:44]

Side by side they fought and died in Spain[00:01:49]

Tommy Woods age seventeen died in Cordoba[00:01:53]

With Na Fianna he learned to hold his gun[00:01:58]

From Dublin to the Villa del Rio[00:02:03]

Where he fought and died beneath the blazing sun[00:02:08]

Viva la Quinta Brigada[00:02:13]

No Pasaran the pledge that made them fight[00:02:18]

Adelante is the cry around the hillside[00:02:23]

Let us all remember them tonight[00:02:28]

Many Irishmen heard the call of Franco[00:02:33]

Joined Hitler and Mussolini too[00:02:38]

Propaganda from the pulpit and newspapers[00:02:43]

Helped O'Duffy to enlist his crew[00:02:48]

The word came from Maynooth "support the Nazis"[00:02:53]

The men of cloth failed again[00:02:58]

When the Bishops blessed the Blueshirts in Dun Laoghaire[00:03:03]

As they sailed beneath the swastika to Spain[00:03:08]

Viva la Quinta Brigada[00:03:13]

No Pasaran the pledge that made them fight[00:03:17]

Adelante is the cry around the hillside[00:03:22]

Let us all remember them tonight[00:03:28]

This song is a tribute to Frank Ryan[00:03:33]

Kit Conway and Dinny Coady too[00:03:37]

Peter Daly Charlie Regan and Hugh Bonar[00:03:42]

Though many died I can but name a few[00:03:47]

Danny Boyle Blaser-Brown and Charlie Donnelly[00:03:52]

Liam Tumilson and Jim Straney from the Falls[00:03:57]

Jack Nalty Tommy Patton and Frank Conroy[00:04:02]

Jim Foley Tony Fox and Dick O'Neill[00:04:07]

Viva la Quinta Brigada[00:04:12]

No Pasaran the pledge that made them fight[00:04:17]

Adelante is the cry around the hillside[00:04:22]

Let us all remember them tonight[00:04:27]

Viva la Quinta Brigada[00:04:32]
