Lyrics:
The heavens roared and o' the heavens roared And the drowning of a nation commenced But now no wave impedes or flows With the tears of young Paddy's laments Wipe the blood from your lip With the flesh of your hand There's no thorn in the side left to grow So lets cherish the names that were lost for our age With the ruin now the suffer must go Where traditions they blend, lives a home on the mend The grass glistens now for all sides So lets sever the shame We have come to reclaim with the water's retreat Feel the shore When the red rose paled Lay a thousand graves many more Though their ghosts still haunt For the day we've come to live for [Chorus:] Don't look back for what's dead now is saved The exiled are home where the souls were kept safe Take me back on the crest of a wave No more tears for your Paddy's lament No more tears, no more Paddy's lament Rip the grief from his heart There's no sorrow tonight For once banished dreams sleep divine Where the silence you hear is the prosper we share The only blade is a razor sharp smile Still a church bell rings To collect the sins that still roam But the only thing lost is the pain When nothing was more [Chorus:] Grab the leaf of the branch From the tree in it's ground Where the roots claim the earth many toiled To a land that now stands Under no ones' command And her beauty let no man destroy So remember the gun And the damage it's done The last drop as been spilt For you and I Let there be no despair For the gloom we once shared Brush the tear from the eye that still shines When the red rose paled Lay a thousand graves many more Though their ghosts still haunt For the day we've come to live for [Chorus x2]
