Куплет 1:
Come all ye young
rebels, and
list while I
sing.
For the
love of one's
country is a
terrible thing.
It
banishes fear with the
speed of a
flame,
And it
makes us all
part of the
patriot game.Куплет 2:
My
name is
O'Hanlon and I've
just gone
sixteen.
My
home is in
Monaghan, where I was
weaned.
I've
learned all my
life, cruel England to
blame,
And
so I'm a
part of the
patriot game.Куплет 3:
It's
nearly two
years since I
wandered away,
With the
local battalion of the
bold IRA.
I
read of our
heroes, and I
wanted the
same,
To
play out my
part in the
patriot game.Куплет 4:
They
told me how
Connolly was
shot in the
chair,
His
wounds from the
battle all bleeding and
bare.
His
fine body
twisted, all battered and
lame,
They
soon made me
part of the
patriot game.Куплет 5:
This
Ireland of
ours has for
long been half
free.
Six
counties are
under John
Bull's tyranny.
So I
gave up my
boyhood to
drill and to
train,
To
play my own
part in the
patriot game.Куплет 6:
And
now as I
lie here, my
body all
holes
I
think of those
traitors who
bargained and
sold.
I
wish that my
rifle had given the
same,
To those
quislings who
sold out the
patriot game.
