Come all ye lads and lassies and sit you down with me, And I will tell the truth about a land that`s dear to me, You`ve read it in the papers and you`ve seen it on TV, But I will spell it out for you, what Ireland means to me. (Chorus) I is for internment of the innocent and free R is for resistance to the laws of tryany E is for the English who have torn our land apart L is for the love of freedom in every Irish heart A is for the answer we`re all searching for N is for one nation and an end to this long war D is for the dream of millions longing to be free. That`s how I spell Ireland, that`s what Ireland means to me. This land was once respected for it`s saints and scolars too But now the bomb and bullet that`s all that makes the news I know that it`s confusing and it`s hard to understand, But I will spell it out for you by spelling Ireland (Repeat chorus)
