The Boys of the Old Brigade
''For the English slow march, see The Old Brigade''
The Boys of the Old Brigade is an Irish republican folk song written by Paddy McGuigan about the Irish Republican Army of the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921),〔(Celtic geographies: old culture, new times By David Harvey )〕 and the anniversary of the 1916 Easter Rising.〔(Counter Culture Anthology By Patrick Harrington, Tim Bragg, Terry Burgoyne )〕
==Lyrics==
The song describes a veteran of the Easter Rising telling a young man about his old comrades in the Irish Republican Army. Each chorus ends with the Irish language phrase "''a ghrá mo chroí'' (love of my heart), I long to see, the Boys of the Old Brigade".〔
The song begins:
Oh, father why are you so sad
On this bright Easter morn’
When Irish men are proud and glad
Of the land where they were born?
Oh, son, I see sad mem'ries view
Of far-off distant days
When, being just a boy like you
I joined the IRA.
The chorus is:
''Where are the lads that stood with me''
''When history was made?''
''A ghrá mo chroí, I long to see''
''The boys of the old brigade.''
