    As we were in the days of yore
    We will strive and old Erin revive
    And banish tyrants from her shore
    Let us have no fears while our volunteers
    Are guarding Ireland by land and sea
    Our men so brave will Erin save
    And do their utmost to keep her free
    A Celtic name find with uproars behind
    And the answer comes to hand
    The total did fight with all their might
    To free this dear old land
