the irish brigade - big john davey كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
from the hills of north antrim to south derry, you came
a man with a flame in your heart
there the fierce fire for freedom and justice burned bright
and the love for a land torn apart
through years of harassment, thrown in jail many times
you were never convicted of crime
and those years spent in prison made you work harder still
for those young folk there still serving time

[chorus]
farewell big john davey, a patriot true
another victim in england’s foul hand
for the men on the triggеr do not pull the strings
of the death squads that tormеnt our land
[verse 2]
the voice of your people, you spoke out for sìnn féin
and the bigots could not shout you down
till that february evening they stopped you at last
bullets silenced what threats could not drown
in this sad blood stained country we’ve lost too many good men
who, like john, took a stand against the crown
and though terror and murder stalk the roads of our land
still the croppies will never lie down

[chorus]
farewell big john davey, a patriot true
another victim in england’s foul hand
for the men on the trigger do not pull the strings
of the death squads that torment our land

[verse 3]
so it’s softly and sadly i sing this last song
for a man who’s kind face we knew well
for your friends and your comrades, your memory lives on
though that heart that loved ireland is now still
