letra de h block song - damien quinn (irl)
[verse 1]
i am a proud young irishman
in ulster’s hills my life began
a happy boy through green fields ran
and i kept god’s and man’s laws
but when my age was barely ten
my country’s wrongs were told again
by tens of thousands marching men
and my heart stirred to the cause
[chorus]
so i’ll wear no convict’s uniform
nor meekly serve my time
that britain might brand ireland’s fight
eight hundred years of crime
[verse 2]
i learned of centuries of strife
of cruel laws, injustice rife
and i saw now in my own young life
the fruits of foreign sway
protesters threatened, tortured, maimed
divisions nurtured, passions flamed
outrage provoked, rights cause defamed
this is the conqueror’s ways
[chorus]
so i’ll wear no convict’s uniform
nor meekly serve my time
that britain might brand ireland’s fight
eight hundred years of crime
[verse 3]
does britain need a thousand years
of protest, riots, death and tears?
or will this past decade of fears
of eighty decades spell
an end to ireland’s agony
new hope for human dignity
and will the last obscenity
be this grim h-block cell?
[chorus]
so i’ll wear no convict’s uniform
nor meekly serve my time
that britain might brand ireland’s fight
eight hundred years of crime
eight hundred years of crime
