Тiocfaidh ár lá, our day will come Our glorious day, for Ireland's fightin' sons The day will come, we will be free Tiocfaidh ár lá, the dawn of liberty
It's been a long 800 years Of English scorn, of Irish tears And only freedom, it will suffice For bein' too long a sacrifice
Tiocfaidh ár lá, our day will come Our glorious day, for Ireland's fightin' sons The day will come, we will be free Tiocfaidh ár lá, the dawn of liberty
And those who hold the power today A full account you'll have to pay To those held down by unjust laws Because they loved our freedom's cause
Tiocfaidh ár lá, our day will come Our glorious day, for Ireland's fightin' sons The day will come, we will be free Tiocfaidh ár lá, the dawn of liberty
And those who make the prisons hell Who hold the key to lock the cells Your time will come, oh, it's long due We'll have our chance to turn the screw
