A Soldier's Wife - Wolfe Tones[00:00:00]

The tribunes tongue and poets pen[00:00:06]

May sow the seed in prostrate men[00:00:09]

For it is the soldiers sword alone[00:00:13]

Can reap the crop so bravely sown[00:00:17]

No more i'll sing no more i'll pine[00:00:20]

But train my soul to lead a line[00:00:26]

A soliders life is the life for me[00:00:30]

A soldiers death and ireland free[00:00:33]

No foe with fury or thunder words[00:00:37]

If it were not for your lightening swords[00:00:41]

If tyrants yield where millions prey[00:00:44]

Tis less they will link in wars array[00:00:47]

Nor peace itself is safe but when[00:00:51]

The sword is yielded by fighting men[00:00:56]

A soldiers life is the life for me[00:01:00]

A soldiers death and ireland free[00:01:03]

The rifle brown and sabre bright[00:01:08]

Can freely speak and nobly write[00:01:11]

What prophet taught the creed so well[00:01:14]

As hoffer breen bruce and tell[00:01:17]

God guard the creed those heroes taught[00:01:21]

That blood bought freedom is cheaply bought[00:01:26]

A soldiers life is the life for me[00:01:30]

A soldiers death and ireland free[00:01:33]

Yet it is not strength and it is not steel[00:01:37]

Alone can make the english reel[00:01:41]

But wisdom working day by day[00:01:44]

Til comes the time for passions sway[00:01:48]

The patients din and power shot[00:01:52]

Can knock an empire like a rock[00:01:57]

A soldiers life is the life for me[00:02:01]

A soliders death and ireland free[00:02:03]

A soldiers life is the life for me[00:02:06]

A soldiers death and ireland free[00:02:08]
