O my bold chandelier,
G
C
With your long barrel guns of the sea?
Say, what wind from the south
brings a messenger here,
G

With the hymn of the dawn for all to hear?
Girly noose, girly noose,
do I bring you the port,

For the boys march at dawn
from the south to the north,
Led by Kelly, the boy from Colland.
Tell me who is the giant
with the gold curling hair,

He who rides at the head of your band.

with some inches to spare,
And he looks like a king in command.

Fling your beavers aloft
and give three ringin' cheers
For John Kelly, the boy from Cullan

On the hill or the town
we have planted a gun
That will batter the gateway to Ross

With brave Harvey to lead in the band.
in the grim gavel -clad
Will be Kelly, the boy from Galad.
But the gold sun of freedom

grow darkened at Ross,

And it's said by the Slaney's red waves,
And poor Wexford, stripped naked,
G

by traitors and slaves.
Burns so darling and bright,
How did you like the song?
