Up the Republic, they raise their battle cry
Pearse and McDermott will pray for you on high
Eager and ready, for love of you they die
Proud march the soldiers of the Rearguard

Legion of the Rearguard
Answering Ireland's call
Hark their martial tramp is heard
From Cork to Donegal
Wolfe Tone and Emmett guide you
Though your task be hard
De Valera leads you
Soldiers of the Legion of the Rearguard

Glorious the morning
Through flame and shot and shell
Now rally Ireland
Your sons who love you well
Pledged, they'll defend you
Through death or prison cell
Wait for the soldiers of the Rearguard

Crimson the roadside
The prison wall they climb
Proof of their valor
Go sleep in peace ye brave
Comrade tread lightly
You're near a hero's grave
Proud die the soldiers of the Rearguard
