| 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 |
