Oh, then tell me Sean O'Farrell,

Tell me why you hurry so.

Hush me Buchall hush and listen,

And his cheeks were all a-glow.

I bear orders from the captain,
D
Get you ready quick and soon,
C G
For the pikes must be together
D G
At the Rising of the Moon.

At the Rising of the Moon,

At the Rising of the Moon,

For the pikes must be to-gether
D G
At the Rising of the Moon.
G
And come tell me Sean O'Farrell
D
Where the gathering is to be
C G .
In the old spot by the river,
D G
Right well known to you and me
G
One more word for signal token,
D
Whistle up the marching tune.
C G
With your pike upon your shoulder
D G
By the Rising of the Moon.
Chorus: G
By the Rising of the Moon,
D
By the Rising of the Moon,
C G
With your pike upon your shoulder
D G
By the Rising of the Moon
G
Out of many a mud wall cabin
D
Eyes were watching thru' the night.
C G
Many a manly heart was throbbing
D G
For the coming morning light.
G
Murmers ran along the valley,
D
'till the banshee's lonely croon,
C G
And a thousand pikes were flashing
D G
By the Rising of the Moon.
Chorus: G
By the Rising of the Moon,
D
By the Rising of the Moon,
C G
And a thousand pikes were flashing
D G
By the Rising of the Moon.
G
All along the singing river
D
That dark mass of men were seen,
C G
Far above their shining weapons hung
D G
Their own beloved green.
G
Death to every foe and traitor,
D
Whistle out the marching tune,
C G
And hurrah me boys for freedom,
D G
Tis the Rising of the moon.
Chorus: G
Tis the Rising of the Moon,
D
Tis the Rising of the Moon,
C G
And hurrah me boys for freedom,
D G
Tis the Rising of the Moon.
G
And they fought for dear old Ireland
D
And proud bitter was their faith
C G
O'h what glorious pride and sorrow
D G
Fills the name of ninety-eight
G
And by way of signal token
D
Whistle out a marching tune
C G
And hurrah me boys for freedom
D G
Tis the Rising of the Moon.
Chorus: G
Tis the Rising of the Moon,
D
Tis the Rising of the Moon,
C G
And hurrah me boys for freedom,
D G
Tis the Rising of the Moon.
