letra de we only want the earth - lorcán mac mathúna
some men, faint-hearted, ever seek
our program to retouch
and will insist, whene’er they speak
that we demand too much
’tis passing strange, yet i declare
such statements give me mirth
for our demands most moderate are:
“we only want the earth.”
“be moderate,” the trimmers cry
who dread the tyrants’ thunder
“you ask too much and people fly
from you aghast in wonder.”
’tis passing strange, for i declare
such statements give me mirth
for our demands most moderate are:
“we only want the earth.”
the earth, the earth
we only want the earth
the earth, the earth
we only want the earth
our masters all a godly crew
whose hearts throb for the poor
their sympathies assure us, too
if our demands were fewer
most generous souls! but please observe
what they enjoy from birth
is all we ever had the nerve
to ask, that is, the earth
the labor fakir, full of guile
base doctrine ever preaches
and whilst he bleeds the rank and file
tame moderation teaches
most generous souls! but please observe
what they enjoy from birth
is all we ever had the nerve
to ask, that is, the earth
the earth, the earth
we only want the earth
the earth, the earth
we only want the earth
