[Spoken:]
The heavens roared and o' the heavens roared
And the drowning of a nation commenced
But now no wave impedes or flows
With the tears of young Paddy's laments
Wipe the blood from you lip
With the flesh of your hand
There's no thorn in the side left the grow
So let's cherish the names that were lost for our age
With the ruin now the suffer must go
Where traditions they blend,lives a home on the mend
The grass glistens now for all sides
So let's sever the shame
We have come to reclaim with the water's retreat
feel the shore
When the red rose paled
Lay a thousand graves many more
Though their ghosts still haunt
For the day we've come to live for
Don't look back for what's dead now is saved
The exiled are home where their souls were kept safe
Take me back on the crest of a wave
No more tears for young Paddy's lament
No more tears, no more Paddy's lament
Rip the grief 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 share
The only blade is a razor sharp smile
Still a church bell rings
To collect the sins that still roam
But the only thing lost is the pain
That nothing was more
Don't look back for what's dead now is saved
The exiled are home where their souls were kept safe
Take me back on the crest of a wave
No more tears for young 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 claim the Earth many toiled
To the 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 split
For you and I
Let there be no despair
For the gloom we once shared
Brush the tear from the eye that still shines
When the red rose paled
Lay a thousand graves many more
Though their ghosts still haunt
For the day we've come to live for
Don't look back for what's dead now is saved
The exiled are home where their souls were kept safe
Take me back on the crest of a wave
No more tears for young Paddy's lament
Don't look back for what's dead now is saved
The exiled are home where their souls were kept safe
Take me back on the crest of a wave
No more tears for young Paddy's lament
No more tears for young Paddy's lament
No more tears no more Paddy's lament
The heavens roared and o' the heavens roared
And the drowning of a nation commenced
But now no wave impedes or flows
With the tears of young Paddy's laments
