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
