My Irish Jewel
My Irish Jewel May 15, 2016
They took a piece of my land, six of thirty two
They came with might and stole it, England shame on you
You took a piece of my land, you stole my Irish jewel
You divided my land, You treated us so cruel
Our people suffered, your religion and your laws
United together, We'll die for the Irish cause
From Cork to the little streets of Ireland
We remember and make our stand
A united nation together for me and you
Twenty six plus six, we want our thirty two
From every part of Ireland all the way to Donegal
We'll unite our land, we'll answer Ireland's call
Return my Irish jewel you stole, let Ireland live in peace
A nation again of thirty two with everlasting peace
They took a piece of my land, six of thirty two
They came with might and stole it, England shame on you
