📝 LYRICS – The Sons of Éire
In the shadow of the rising sun
Where foreign sands and rivers run
The sons of Éire shoulder their pain
Far from the hills of home again

They fight for a flag that's not their own
Dream of green fields where winds have blown
Whispers of Erin call them near
But all they hold is their battle gear

The clovers fade in the foreign soil
Hands calloused hard from years of toil
Their voices echo through the night
Singing songs of home in the firelight

Oh lads who tread on distant shores
Do you still hear the Shannon’s roar?
Or does the cannon drown the sound
Of the rolling waves on Irish ground

(Chorus)

Their hearts still beat with Ireland’s pride
Though in strange lands they must abide
With every step through the smoke and rain
They carry their homeland in every vein
