Cruachan - 1000 Years lyrics

As I look out across the sea I stand proud but am I free? A thousand years have come and gone I have won, I will go on Stand firm against the storm I cannot see it but it will come And with the ghosts of a million Gaels I will rise up, I will prevail You can starve my children You can k** my fighting man Take away my right to freedom And when my back is turned you k** again You can burn my houses Take away all that I have known But the seeds are sown When the Dane invaded The held the Gael with a strangle-hold Until Boru joined to clans He won the war, re-claimed my lands My green fields have been stained red From the blood of the Irish dead But with this fire that burns inside I will always rebel, I will survive You can starve my children You can k** my fighting man Take away my right to freedom And when my back is turned you k** again You can burn my houses Take away all that I have known But the seeds are sown
