Wipe the blood from your lip   With the flesh of your hand   There's no thorn in the side left to grow   So let's cherish the names that were lost for an age   With the rue now the supper must go      Where traditions, they blend lives a home on the mend   The grass glistens now for alls eyes   So let's sever the shame we have come to reclaim   With the waters retreat fill the shore      When the red rose pale   Lay a thousand graves many more   Though their ghost still haunt   For the day we've come till this far      Don't look back for what's dead now is safe   The exiled, a home where their 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 tree from it's heart   There's no sorrow tonight   For now once banished dreams sleep divine   Where the silence you hear is the prosper we shared   The only blade is a razor sharp smile      Still the church bell rings   The collective sings that still roam   But the only thing left   Is the pain of nothing once more      Don't look back for what's dead now is safe   The exiled, a home where their 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      Grab the leaf of the branch from the tree in it's ground   Where these roots claimed the earth many toiled   To a land that now stands under no one's command   And her beauty let no man destroy      So remember the gun and the damage it's done   The last drop has been spilled for you and I   Let there be no despair for the rule we once shared   Brush the tear from the eye that still shines      When the red rose pale   Lay a thousand graves, many more   Though their the ghost still haunt   For the day we've come till this far      Don't look back for what's dead now is safe   The exiled, a home where their souls were kept safe   Take me back on the crest of a wave   No more tears for your Paddy's lament      Don't look back for what's dead now is safe   The exiled, a home where their souls were kept safe   Take me back on the crest of a wave   No more tears for your Paddy's lament   No more tears for your Paddy's lament   No more tears, no more Paddy's lament
