Irish

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da

I'm not fit for soldier

I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da

I'm not fit for soldier

I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da

I'm not fit for soldier

I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da

I'm not fit for soldier

For the king he say, the king say

For now you fight or I'll take your land away

For the king he say, the king say

For now you fight or I'll take your land away

So over the seas, over the seas

To kill a man that I have never seen

Over the seas.....

I won't die for England

Not for England

I said to me ma, said to me ma, said to me ma

I sail away now

I said to me ma, said to me ma, said to me ma

I sail away now

Over the seas, over the seas

Far away from my Ireland

Over the seas, over the seas

Far and away from miles of green

For the king he say, the king say

For now you fight or I'll take your children

For the king he say, the king say

For now you fight or I'll take your children

So they send me away, send me away

To kill a man that I have never seen

They send me away, send me away.....

I won't die for England

Not for England

Far away from my homeland

Many miles, many miles I would roam

Far from my home

Far from my home....

Far and away.....

I won't die for England

Not for England
