| Read the roll of honour for Ireland's bravest men we must be united in memory of the ten, England you're a monster don�t think that you have won we will never be defeated while Ireland has such sons, In those weary H Block cages ten brave young Irishmen lay hungering for justice while their young lives ebbed away, for their rights as Irish soldiers and to free they�re native land they stood beside their leader the gallant Bobby Sands, Now they mourn Hughes in Bellaghy, Ray McCreesh in Armagh's hills In those narrow streets of Derry they miss O'Hara still, They so proudly gave their young lives to break Britannia's hold Their names will be remembered as history unfolds, Chorus Through the war torn streets of Ulster the black flags did proudly wave To salute ten Irish martyrs the bravest of the brave, Joe McDonnell, Martin Hurson, Kevin Lynch, Kieran Doherty They gave their lives for freedom with Thomas McElwee Michael Devine from Derry you were the last to die, With your nine brave companions with the martyred dead you lie, Your souls cry out remember, our deaths are not in vain Fight on and make our homeland a nation once again.
