By a false information they were shot on Dunlavin Green.

Bad luck to you Saunders, for you did their lives betray.
愿噩运笼罩背叛战友的桑德斯上校
You said a parade would be held on that very same day.

Drums they did rattle – our fifes they did sweetly play.
军鼓与横笛声清脆嘹亮
Surrounded we were and privately marched away.
包围着我们又渐渐远去
Quite easy they led us like prisoners through the town

To be shot on the plain, we first were forced to kneel down.

For the loss of their fathers who were shot on Dunlavin Green
