Lyrics:

Wipe the blood from your lip with the flesh of your hand
There's no thorn in the side left to grow
So let's cherish the names that were lost for our age
With the ruin now the suffer must go

Where traditions they blend lives a home on the mend
The grass glistens now for all sides
So let's sever the shame we have come to reclaim
With the water's retreat, feel the shore

When the red rose paled lay a thousand graves, many more
Though their ghosts still haunt for the day we've come to live for

Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved
The exiled are home where their souls were kept safe
Take me back on the crest of a wave
No more tears for young Paddy's Lament
No more tears, no more Paddy's Lament

Rip the grief from its heart, there's no sorrow tonight
For now once banished dreams sleep divine
Where the silence you hear is the prosper we share
The only blade is a razor sharp smile

Still a church bell rings to collect the sins that still roam
But the only thing lost is the pain when nothing was more

Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved
The exiled are home where their souls were kept safe
Take me back on the crest of a wave
No more tears for young Paddy's Lament
No more tears, no more Paddy's Lament

Grab the leaf of the branch from the tree in its ground
Where these roots claim the earth, many toiled
To a land that now stands under no one's command
And her beauty, let no man destroy

So remember the gun and the damage it's done
The last drop has been spilled for you and I
Let there be no despair for the gloom we once shared
Brush the tear from the eye that still shines

When the red rose paled lay a thousand graves, many more
Though their ghosts still haunt for the day we've come to live for

Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved
The exiled are home where their souls were kept safe
Take me back on the crest of a wave
No more tears for young Paddy's Lament

Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved
The exiled are home where their souls were kept safe
Take me back on the crest of a wave
No more tears for young Paddy's Lament
No more tears for young Paddy's Lament
No more tears, no more Paddy's Lament
