In this world of troubles and sorrows
With it's wars in far foreign lands
Ireland has made it's contribution to peace
And forgot it's own troubles at hand
While we live in democracy
They say we're the land of the free
For saints and scholars
We've got them to spare
Must Ireland divided be
While the North and South are divided
By religious bigotry
Our people have never decided to live
As one community
While we live in democracy
They say we're the land of the free
For saints and scholars
We've got them to spare
Must Ireland divided be
There are countries with problems of colour
And it's we have a problem of same
It's not black and white
This remains to be seen
It's the hate between orange and green
While we live in democracy
They say we're the land of the free
For saints and scholars
We've got them to spare
Must Ireland divided be
We've honoured the past generations
Men who fought for orange and green
But yet today we have not fulfilled
The ideal of their dream
While we live in democracy
They say we're the land of the free
For saints and scholars
We've got them to spare
Must Ireland divided be
Come gather 'round, people of Ireland
And listen to my plea
Don't listen to bigots
Let's love and not hate
And strive towards unity
And we live in democracy
And we'll be the land of the free
And saints and scholars
We'll have them to spare
And united we will be
