There is a land that I can go to

When I have time to rest

All the people I love are there

And those who love me best

Then I heard the wind

Calling from over the sea

Saying ireland ireland

When will you be free

Ireland ireland

When will you be free

This land I go to when Im tired

And need to see and walk in green

The people who can laugh and drink

And see things others have not seen

Then I heard the wind

Calling from over the sea

Saying ireland ireland

When will you be free

Ireland ireland

When will you be free

There is another side to this pure land

A side of blood and guilt and pain

A side of enemy and friend

And sorrow at the hearth side stain

Then I heard the wind

Crying from over the sea

Saying ireland ireland

When will you be free

Ireland ireland

When will you be free

There is a land that I can go to

When I have time to rest

All the people I love are there

And those who love me best

Then I heard the wind

Calling from over the sea

Saying ireland ireland

When will you be free

Ireland ireland

When will you be free

Ireland ireland

When will you be free

Ireland ireland

When will you be free
