Wrap The Green Flag Round Me

Wrap the green flag 'round me, boys
To die were far more sweet
With Erin's noble emblem, boys
To be my winding sheet
In life I loved to see it wave
And follow where it led
But now my eyes grow dim, my hand
Would grasp its last bright shred

[Chorus]
So wrap the green flag 'round me, boys
To die were far more sweet
With Erin's noble emblem, boys
To be my winding sheet

And I had hopes to meet you, boys
On many's the well-fought field
When to our sacred banner, boys
The traiteous foe would yield
But now alas, I am denied
My dearest earthly prayer
You'll follow and you'll meet the foe
But I shall not be there

[Chorus]
So wrap the green flag 'round me, boys
To die were far more sweet
With Erin's noble emblem, boys
To be my winding sheet

And though my body moulders, boys
My spirit will be free
And every comrade's honour, boys
Will yet be dear to me
And in the midst of bloody fight
Let not your courage lack
For I'll be there and hovering near
Beneath the dear old flag

[Chorus]
So wrap the green flag 'round me, boys
To die were far more sweet
With Erin's noble emblem, boys
To be my winding sheet

[Chorus]
So wrap the green flag 'round me, boys
To die were far more sweet
With Erin's noble emblem, boys
To be my winding sheet
