["Many a manly heart was beating","'Tis the rising of the moon","At the rising of the moon","'Tis the rising of the moon","Eyes were watching through the night","And come tell me Sean O'Farrell","Death to every foe and traitor","Quite well known to you and me","","Murmurs ran along the valley","At the rising of the moon","And hurrah, me boys for freedom","Whistle loud the marching tune","","","","And hurrah, me boys for freedom","The rising of the moon","Hung their own beloved green","","A thousand pikes were flashing","Whistle loud the marching tune","Where the gatherin' is to be","","At the rising of the moon","","With your pike upon your shoulder","The pikes must be together","","With your pike upon your shoulder","And hurrah, me boys for freedom","The rising of the moon","The rising of the moon","At the rising of the moon","","Like the banshee's lonely croon","And by way of signal token","The rising of the moon","The rising of the moon","And a thousand pikes were flashing","For the blessed morning light","The rising of the moon","For the pikes must be together","Out from many a mud wall cabin","And above their shining weapons","At the old spot by the river","Tell me why you hurry so?","Get you ready quick and soon","The rising of the moon","At the rising of the moon","","'Tis the rising of the moon","","All along that singing river","A black mass of men was seen","The rising of the moon","At the rising of the moon","Hush a bhuachaill, hush and listen","And his cheeks were all aglow","Now come tell me Sean O'Farrell","The rising of the moon","","The rising of the moon","I have orders from the captain"]
