[Verse 1]

Set out from the Doorin shore

In the shallows

A calm had spread from the north

To the south shoals

A dot on the endless sky

The storm came upon our sights

[Verse 2]

Tomorrow will come

But not for you young ones

No I won't heed your warn

I'll battle the wave and the storm

I'll stand alone

[Verse 3]

In Cobh we spent the night

Sate with Abbot’s ale

Lay down with a lass

Alas my eyes did fail

On the road the following morn

The robbers came upon nay warning

[Verse 4]

Mates made for the trees

Left me on my knees

I'll not cede this gold

I've come too far to roll

I'll stand alone

[Verse 5]

Settled on the shores Adare

The place that I was born

The past had left me bare

No will to fight any more

The brigands rang the bell

Ships came in without warning

[Verse 6]

The years that I was brave

The soldiers and the slave

The battle lay for me now

I know not where nor how

[Outro]

I’ll stand alone

I’ll stand alone

I’ll stand alone

I’ll stand alone
