Текст песни O Donnell Aboo - The Clancy Brothers

Proudly the note of the trumpet it is sounding
Loudly the war cries arise on the gale
Fleetly the steed by Lough Swilly is bounding
To join the thick squadrons on Saimear's green vale

On every mountaineer strangers to flight or fear
Rush to the standard of dauntless Red Hugh
Bonnaught and Gallowglass throng from each mountain pass
Onward for Erin O'Donnell Abu

Princely O'Neill to our aid is advancing
With many a chieftain and warrior clan
A thousand proud steeds in his vanguard are prancing
Neath the borderers brave from the Banks of the Bann

Many a heart shall quail under his coat of mail
Deeply the merciless foeman shall rue
When on his ears shall ring borne on the breeze's wing
Tyrconnell's red war cry O'Donnell Abu

Wildly o'er Desmond the war wolf is howling
Fearless the eagle sweeps o'er the plain
The fox in the streets of the city is prowling
And all who would scare them are banished and slain

On with O'Donnell then fight the old fight again
Sons of Tyrconnell are valiant and true
Make the proud Saxon feel Erin's avenging steel
Strike for your country O'Donnell Abu
