  • 作曲 : Brian Warfield
    To the tiny homesteads of the west
    The recruiting sergeant came
    He promised all a future bright
    So the brave men went off to fight
    For the Empire and her laws

    And many's a victory they had won
    Many hardships they had seen
    They fought and died side by side
    Their enemies they had defied
    And for a foreign king

    The drums they were a-beating time
    While the pipes they loudly played
    When Daly died the drums did beat
    That morning in the Dagshai heat
    Now we beat the drums no more

    While serving in a far-off land
    The news had come from home
    Of our people's fate it did relate
    Of the Tans and their campaign of hate
    And we're fighting on their side
    Arise, arise, young Daly cried
    Come join along with me
    We'll strike a blow for liberty
    A regimental mutiny
    In support of friends at home

    The drums they were a-beating time
    While the pipes they loudly played
    When Daly died the drums did beat
    That morning in the Dagshai heat
    Now we beat the drums no more

    And the colonel stood before his troops
    Those men who mutinied
    He told them of those honors won
    But the men stood in the blazing sun
    Saying we'll fight your war no more

    For cannon fodder we had been
    For the French at Waterloo
    We fought your every bloody war
    And we'll fight your war no more

    The drums they were a-beating time
    While the pipes they loudly played
    When Daly died the drums did beat
    That morning in the Dagshai heat
    Now we beat the drums no more

    Those men got penal servitude
    And Daly's condemned to die
    Far from his home in Tyrrell Pass
    This young man's died in Ireland's cause
    Far from his native land

    The drums they were a-beating time
    While the pipes they loudly played
    When Daly died the drums did beat
    That morning in the Dagshai heat
    Now we beat the drums no more
