lirik lagu cruachan - the great hunger
we are alone in this cursed land, left to die like starving dogs.
our crops have failed us yet again; nothing grows in this desolate bog.
i hold my daughter in my arms. she is too weak to stand or walk.
her face is gaunt, her belly empty; she cannot see, she cannot talk.
what money i had has all been spent, on bread and milk and bl–dy rent.
they take from us all that we have, these b-st-rds that from h-ll were sent.
my wife is dead. my home is lost, all around me dead and dying.
i grip my child, i hold her tight. i must go on, i must keep trying.
to the harbour is where i plan to go, to escape the land i love so dear.
the english are the rulers here. they eat their fill. the have no fear.
i look to the heavens and shout aloud “what has poor ireland done?”
the world looks on and sees us starve, dying one by one.
my strength has failed, i can’t go on. beside my daughter i lay.
some bread or corn could save her life. all i can do is pray.
i hold her hand and wipe a tear as i watch a new day dawn.
my daughter seems so peaceful now; to heaven she is gone
