Have mercy on the irish.
In Northern Ireland.
Armored cars are all around.
And deadly bombs in London town.
IRA - UDA.
SAS - it´s all a mess.
Brothers with different names.
Playing mason and commie games.
It´s whites killing whites.
Catholic of protestant.
The same blood the same face.
Of the beautiful Celtic race
The children weep the tears.
Of a blood stained emerald.
All the funerals through the years.
Blood stained emerald.

All the funerals through the years.
Blood stained emerald

Murder for a border line.
Still the feud of ´94.
Children blown away by a mine.
Stop this obscene war.
Bury the bad traditions.
Settle the church divisions

The children weep the tears.
Of a blood stained emerald.
All the funerals through the years.
Blood stained emerald.
The children weep the tears.
Of a blood stained emerald.
All the funerals through the years.

Hear their cry for peace.
A truce for unity.
The harps and pipes echo.
In Belfast and Derry city.
Once foes now come together.
Racial kinsman are forever
Irish unity,
Christian unity,
Irish unity.
Is white unity.
White unity.
