    G        C          G      C
The minstrel boy to the war is gone,
       G        Em            D    G
In the ranks of death ye will find him;
    G        C             G      C
His father's sword he hath girded on,
        G         Em    D      G
And his wild harp slung behind him;
Em       C               D         G
"Land of Song!" said the warrior bard,
      C       Em       C   D
"Tho' all the world betray thee,
    G         C          G            C
One sword, at least, thy rights shall guard,
    G        Em         D      G
One faithful harp shall praise thee!"

The Minstrel fell! But the foeman's chain
Could not bring his proud soul under;
The harp he lov'd ne'er spoke again,
For he tore its chords asunder;
And said "No chains shall sully thee,
Thou soul of love and bravery!
Thy songs were made for the pure and free
They shall never sound in slavery!"
