Follow Me Up To Carlow Lyrics - The High Kings

Lift Mac Cahir Òg your face 

Broodin' o'er the old disgrace 

That Black Fitzwilliam stormed your place 

And drove you to the fern 

Gray said victory was sure 

Soon the firebrand he'd secure 

Until he met at Glenmalure 

With Fiach Mchugh O'Byrne 

Curse and swear, Lord Kildare, 

Fiach will do what Fiach will dare 

Now Fitzwilliam have a care, 

fallen is your star low 

Up with halberd, out with sword, 

on we go for, by the Lord 

Fiach McHugh has given the word 

"Follow me up to Carlow!"

See the swords at Glen Imaal, 

flashin' o'er the English Pale 

See all the children of the Gael, 

beneath O'Byrne's banner 

Rooster of a fighting stock, 

would you let a Saxon cock 

Crow out upon an Irish Rock, 

fly up and teach him manners. 

Curse and swear, Lord Kildare, 

Fiach will do what Fiach will dare 

Now Fitzwilliam have a care, 

fallen is your star low 

Up with halberd, out with sword, 

on we go for, by the Lord 

Fiach McHugh has given the word 

"Follow me up to Carlow!"

Curse and swear, Lord Kildare, 

Fiach will do what Fiach will dare 

Now Fitzwilliam have a care,
