The Wearing of the Green - Wolfe Tones[00:00:00]
Oh paddy dear and did you hear[00:00:11]
The news that's going 'round[00:00:14]
The shamrock is forbid by law[00:00:16]
To grow on irish ground[00:00:19]
Saint patrick's name no more you'll hear[00:00:21]
His colors can't be seen[00:00:23]
For they're hanging men and women[00:00:26]
For the wearing of the green[00:00:28]
I met with napper tandy[00:00:32]
And he took me by the hand[00:00:34]
He said how's poor old ireland[00:00:37]
And how does she stand[00:00:40]
She's the most distressful country[00:00:42]
That ever you have seen[00:00:44]
They're hanging men and women[00:00:47]
For the wearing of the green[00:00:49]
For the wearing of the green[00:00:51]
For the wearing of the green[00:00:54]
They're hanging men and women[00:00:56]
For the wearing of the green[00:00:59]
Then since the color we must wear[00:01:03]
Is england's cruel red[00:01:05]
Sure ireland's sons will n'er forget[00:01:08]
The blood that they have shed[00:01:10]
You may take the shamrock from your hat[00:01:12]
And cast it on the sod[00:01:15]
But 'twill take root and flourish still[00:01:17]
Tho' underfoot 'tis trod[00:01:20]
My father loved his country[00:01:23]
And sleeps within' her breast[00:01:26]
While I that would have died for her[00:01:28]
May never be so blest[00:01:31]
Those tears my mother shed for me[00:01:33]
How bitter they'd have been[00:01:35]
If I had proved a traitor to[00:01:38]
The wearing of the green[00:01:40]
For the wearing of the green[00:01:42]
For the wearing of the green[00:01:45]
They're hanging men and women[00:01:48]
For the wearing of the green[00:01:50]
But if at last[00:01:54]
Her colors should be torn from ireland's heart[00:01:55]
Her sons with shame and sorrow[00:01:59]
From the dear old soil will part[00:02:01]
I've heard whispers of a[00:02:04]
London has beyond sea[00:02:05]
Where rich and poor stand equal[00:02:08]
In the light of freedom's day[00:02:11]
O erin must we leave you driven by the tyrant's hand[00:02:15]
Must we ask a mother's blessing[00:02:19]
Found the strange dist land[00:02:21]
Where the cruel cross of england's[00:02:24]
Thralldom never more be seen[00:02:27]
And then in god we'll live and die[00:02:29]
Still wearing of the green[00:02:32]
For the wearing of the green[00:02:34]
For the wearing of the green[00:02:36]
They're hanging men and women[00:02:39]
For the wearing of the green[00:02:41]
For the wearing of the green[00:02:43]
For the wearing of the green[00:02:46]
They're hanging men and women[00:02:48]
For the wearing of the green[00:02:50]
