Must Ireland Divided Be |
In this world of troubles and sorrows |
With its wars in far foreign lands |
Ireland has made its contribution to peace |
And forgot its own troubles at hand |
While we live in democracy |
They say we’re the land of the free |
For saints and scholars, we’ve got them to spare |
Must Ireland divided be |
While the North and South are divided |
By religious bigotry |
Our people have never decided to live |
As one community |
While we live in democracy |
They say we’re the land of the free |
For saints and scholars, we’ve got them to spare |
Must Ireland divided be |
There are countries with problems of colour |
And it’s we have a problem of same |
It’s not black and white, this remains to be seen |
It’s the hate between orange and green |
While we live in democracy |
They say we’re the land of the free |
For saints and scholars, we’ve got them to spare |
Must Ireland divided be |
We’ve honoured the past generations |
Men who fought for orange and green |
But yet today we have not fulfilled |
The ideal of their dream |
While we live in democracy |
They say we’re the land of the free |
For saints and scholars, we’ve got them to spare |
Must Ireland divided be |
Come gather 'round, people of Ireland |
And listen to my plea |
Don’t listen to bigots, let’s love and not hate |
And strive towards unity |
And we live in democracy |
And we’ll be the land of the free |
And saints and scholars, we’ll have them to spare |
And united we will be |
