the davitts - kevin barry كلمات أغنية

in mountjoy jail one monday morning
high upon the gallows tree
kevin barry gave his young life
for the cause of liberty
just a lad of eighteen summers
sure that no one can deny
as he walked to death that morning
he proudly held his head up high

just before he reached the hangman
in his dreary prison cell
british soldiers tortured barry
all because he would not tell
the names of his brave comrades
and other things they wished to know
“turn informer, and we’ll free you!”
kevin barry answered “no!”

“shoot me live, a dying soldier
do not hang me like a dog
for i fought for ireland’s freedom
on that cold september morn”
just a lad of eighteen summers
sure that no one can deny
as he walked to death that morning
he proudly held his head up high
proudly standing to attention
as he bade his last farewell
to his broken hearted mother
whose sad grief, no one could tell
lads like barry are no cowards
from the foe they will not fly
lads like barry will free ireland
for her cause they’ll fight and die
