CARRY IT ON

There's a man by my side walking
There's a voice inside me talking
There's a word that needs a-saying
Carry it on, carry it on, carry it on, carry it on

They will tell their lying stories
Send their dogs to bite our bodies
They will lock us up in prison
Carry it on, carry it on, carry it on, carry it on

All their lies soon be forgotten
All their dogs gonna lie there rotting
All their prison walls will tumble
Carry it on, carry it on, carry it on, carry it on

If you can't go on any longer
Take the hand held by your brother
Every victory gonna brings another
Carry it on, carry it on, carry it on, carry it on

There's a man by my side walking
There's a voice inside me talking
There's a word that needs a-saying
Carry it on, carry it on, carry it on, carry it on
Carry it on, carry it on, carry it on, carry it on
LEANAÍG’ AR AGHAIDH

Tá fear liomsa ar an mbóthar
Is tá guth ionam ag comhrá
Sea tá guth ionam ag áiteamh
Leanaíg’ ar aghaidh, leanaig’ ar aghaidh

Tá siad lán de scéalta folmha
Baineann madraí plaic as colainn
Cuirfear sinn faoi ghlas i bpríosún
Leanaíg’ ar aghaidh, leanaíg’ ar aghaidh

Nuair nach féidir bogadh a thuilleadh
Beir ar lámh ar do dheartháir
Leagtar caisleáin ‘ndiaidh a chéile
Leanaíg’ ar aghaidh, leanaíg’ ar aghaidh
Leanaíg’ ar aghaidh, leanaíg’ ar aghaidh
