| In my dreams I know that I can fly
 | 
| But like the small birds and the free birds
 | 
| I can fly just like the birds on high
 | 
| To the freedom of the sky
 | 
| I can soar across the heavens
 | 
| How easy now it seems
 | 
| Like the birds I will have no cares or sorrows
 | 
| I the shadow, the shadows of my dreams
 | 
| Ireland my Ireland
 | 
| It seems to me that all the leaves
 | 
| Are sighing in the breeze
 | 
| Ireland I cry for my lan-ah
 | 
| And it seems to me that all the leaves are gone
 | 
| As I wonder through my lonely land
 | 
| My heart is full of pain
 | 
| For our people have no freedom
 | 
| Their imporvirished and enchained
 | 
| I see them fight and struggle
 | 
| Against the stormy hearts of men
 | 
| A language struggle with the people
 | 
| And by hunger all are slane
 | 
| Ireland my Ireland
 | 
| Banashed to a land beyond the sea
 | 
| I see a rich a rich and fertile land
 | 
| I feel the spirit of a nation
 | 
| A maiden weeps she weeps upon the harp
 | 
| I see tumbling towns and towers
 | 
| I a land of beauty and of splendour
 | 
| From the mountains to the seas
 | 
| But the wild flowers drown in sorrow
 | 
| In this valley, this valley filled with tears
 | 
| Ireland my Ireland
 | 
| It seems to me that all the leaves
 | 
| Are sighing in the breeze
 | 
| Ireland I cry for my lan-ah
 | 
| And it seems to me that all the leaves are gone
 | 
| So I fly across this lonely land
 | 
| I see golden fields of corn
 | 
| I see a land thats filled with plenty
 | 
| Yet the people starve and die
 | 
| Young Ireland now is silienced
 | 
| And are banashed far away
 | 
| The lion preys upon the people
 | 
| And devoures them night and day |
