letra de henry joy - francie brolly & anne brolly
[verse 1]
an ulsterman i am proud to be
from the antrim glens i come
and though i labour by the sea
i have followed flag and drum
i have heard the marching tramp of men
i’ve watched men fight and die
ah, lads i well remember when
i followed henry joy
[verse 2]
i pulled my boat up on the shore
and i hid my sails away
i hung my nets upon a tree
and scanned the moonlit bay
the lads were out and the redcoats too
i kissed my wife goodbye
and in the shade of the greenwood glade
i followеd henry joy
[verse 3]
ah, lads, for ireland’s cause wе fought
for sire and home we bled
though our pikes were few, our hearts beat true
and five to one lay dead
and many a lassie lost her lad
and mother mourned her boy
for youth was strong in the dashing throng
that followed henry joy
[verse 4]
in belfast town they built a tree
and the redcoats mustered there
i watched him come to the sound of the drum
roll out in the barrack square
he kissed his sister and climbed aloft
then waved a last good-bye
ah lads he died, i turned and cried
they have murdered henry joy
