Current song lyrics
From a county Mayo town came a man of great renown<br />As a sailor and a soldier was none bolder<br />He went to America at an early age they say<br />As a cabin boy to sail the wide world over<br /><br />Then adventure took him south to the De La Plata mouth<br />San Martin was on the route in Argentina<br />So three whaling ships he bought and Brazil and Spain he fought<br />And freedom then he sought for Argentina<br /><br />Now Admiral William Brown you're a man of courage shown<br />And in battles fought the odds were all against you<br />But your Irish heart was strong and in memory still lives on<br />And in Ireland there are some that don't forget you<br /><br />On St. Patrick's Day it's told you had many victories bold<br />You defeated all invaders thugs and bully's<br />Then through the Pampas rose and you found a happy home<br />"Las Islas Malvinas, Argentinas"<br /><br />He had heard of Irish hands in noble gallant bands<br />That helped to free the land called Argentina<br />He had heard with great acclaim the Patricios name and fame<br />When in 1806 the British came for slaughter<br /><br />And to this very day in the Argentine they say<br />The English ran away from Buenos Aires<br />To the islands further down and they took them for the crown<br />"Las Islas Malvinas, Argentinas"<br /><br />We remember William Brown and his land of great renown<br />He, invader of the islands from your country<br />When in 1833 were by pirates forced to flee<br />And in Ireland sure we know the story fully<br /><br />And the people that went too to the Argentine when new<br />To escape the English laws and wars and famine<br />They had proved a loyal crew just like all the Irish do<br />"Las Islas Malvinas, Argentinas"<br /><br />The old colonial days and cruel English ways<br />With her thunder plunder we will teach the natives<br />For the Brits are going to war just like Whitelocke did before<br />With her ships and guns and drums and flags and banners<br /><br />In the Empire days of old when they murdered for gold<br />And paraded it around the streets of London<br />Oh no human rights were given to the natives dead or living<br />"Las Islas Malvinas, Argentinas"<br /><br />In the Argentine he died Father Fahey by his side<br />'57 was the year his country mourned him<br />A hero of the nation he's remembered with elation<br />Throughout the world where freedom still abounds<br /><br />And the Southern Cross take note where bold Willie Bullfin wrote<br />The Irish still support you Argentina<br />With the Empire tumbling down let no Paddies back the crown<br />"Las Islas Malvinas, Argentinas"
