[Verse 1]
Bye forever, sadness, sighs
Bye right now to gloomy cries
A song of hope I sing you
In Irish sweet and true
And let’s stand and sing it proudly
For all the world. X 2

[Verse 2]
No longer will I be lazy, unmoving
Tormented, bent, weak, cold
Strength and youthful vigour
Pulling us through this struggle
And we’ll remove this fog
For our offsprings’ strength
