  1. Ireland's Hurling Men

    Share Share Post
    Who says our Country's soul has fled?
    Who says our Country's heart is dead?
    Come let them hear the marching tread,
    Of twice five thousand Hurling men,
    They hold the hopes of bygone years
    They love the past - its smiles and tears
    But quavering doubts and shrinking fears
    Are far from Irelands's Hurling men.

    Chorus:-
    Hurrah! Hurrah the stout Camán
