Story behind the song
Song about the 1916 Irish Leaders fight for Freedom
Lyrics
Leave me alone on the Hill of Shinrone To talk to the bold Fenian men They're fighting here and they're fighting everywhere Is there nothing left but despair They're meeting in the halls, they're marching on the Dail There seems to be no peaceful common ground I hear some people say, too much a price to pay For peace and freedom and for liberty Chorus Let us praise those men of glory and listen to their stories Of Collins, Pearse, and Plunket and all that gallant band We will rally around the flag boys and always keep our heads high It won't be long before we're a nation once again The time is long gone past, we're getting nowhere fast They're taking all the heat at Downings Street Dublin's talk to Dail its time you made your call For freedom and for justice one and all I'm now far away its here I want to stay Because of all that fear and disarray I hope someday they be a home for you and me Back here in the Isle of Inisfree
