Lyrics:

Oh then, tell me Seán O'Farrell, tell me why you hurry so?

"Hush a bhuachaill, hush and listen", and his cheeks were all aglow,

"I bear orders from the captain:- get you ready quick and soon

For the pikes must be together by the rising of the moon"

By the rising of the moon, by the rising of the moon,

For the pikes must be together by the rising of the moon

"And come tell me Seán O'Farrell where the gath'rin is to be?"

"In the old spot by the river, right well known to you and me.

One more word for signal token:- whistle out the marchin' tune,

With your pike upon your shoulder, by the rising of the moon."

By the rising of the moon, by the rising of the moon

With your pike upon your shoulder, by the rising of the moon.

Out from many a mud wall cabin eyes were watching through the night,

Many a manly chest was throbbing, for the blessed morning light.

Murmurs ran along the valleys like the banshee's lonely croon

And a thousand pikes were flashing at the rising of the moon.

At the rising of the moon, at the rising of the moon.

And a thousand pikes were flashing by the rising of the moon.

There beside the singing river that black mass of men was seen,

High above their shining weapons flew their own beloved green.

"Death to every foe and traitor! Forward strike the marching tune."

And hurrah my boys for freedom; 'tis the rising of the moon".

Tis the rising of the moon, tis the rising of the moon

And hurrah my boys for freedom; 'Tis the rising of the moon".

Well they fought for poor old Ireland, and full bitter was their fate,

Oh what glorious pride and sorrow, fills the name of ninety-eight!

Yet, thank God, e'en still are beating hearts in manhood burning noon,

Who would follow in their footsteps, at the risin' of the moon

At the rising of the moon, At the rising of the moon

Who would follow in their footsteps, at the risin' of the moon.
