[00:02.28]Ten years before I saw the light of morning
[00:07.34]A comradeship of heroes was laid
[00:12.07]From every corner of the world came sailing
[00:16.82]The Fifteen International Brigade
[00:21.53]They came to stand beside the Spanish people
[00:26.31]To try and stem the rising fascist tide
[00:31.04]Franco's allies were the powerful and wealthy
[00:35.51]Frank Ryan's men came from the other side
[00:41.19]Even the olives were bleeding
[00:45.77]As the battle for Madrid it thundered on
[00:49.55]Truth and love against the force of evil
[00:54.21]Brotherhood against the fascist clan
[00:59.18]Viva la Quinta Brigada
[01:05.00]"No Pasaran", the pledge that made them fight
[01:08.65]"Adelante" is the cry around the hillside
[01:13.54]Let us all remember them tonight
[01:19.87]Viva la Quinta Brigada
[01:23.87]"No Pasaran", the pledge that made them fight
[01:28.66]"Adelante" is the cry around the hillside
[01:33.89]Let us all remember them tonight
[01:38.06]Bob Hilliard was a Church of Ireland pastor
[01:43.38]Form Killarney across the Pyrenees he came
[01:48.14]From Derry came a brave young Christian Brother
[01:53.17]Side by side they fought and died in Spain
[01:58.07]Tommy Woods age seventeen died in Cordoba
[02:02.78]With Na Fianna he learned to hold his gun
[02:07.59]From Dublin to the Villa del Rio
[02:12.13]Where he fought and died beneath the blazing sun
[02:17.54]Viva la Quinta Brigada
[02:22.45]"No Pasaran", the pledge that made them fight
[02:27.38]"Adelante" is the cry around the hillside
[02:32.81]Let us all remember them tonight
[02:36.53]Many Irishmen heard the call of Franco
[02:41.86]Joined ****** and Mussolini too
[02:46.14]Propaganda from the pulpit and newspapers
[02:52.06]Helped O'Duffy to enlist his crew
[02:57.35]The word came from Maynooth, "support the ****s"
[03:02.19]The men of cloth failed again
[03:06.51]When the Bishops blessed the Blueshirts in Dun Laoghaire
[03:11.76]As they sailed beneath the swastika to Spain
[03:15.74]Viva la Quinta Brigada
[03:21.34]"No Pasaran", the pledge that made them fight
[03:26.20]"Adelante" is the cry around the hillside
[03:31.48]Let us all remember them tonight

[03:40.96]Kit Conway and Dinny Coady too
