"Give Me Your Hand" lyrics

"Give Me Your Hand"

Will you give me your hand? Is tabhair dom do lámh
Just give your hand and I'll walk with you
Through the streets of our land, through the mountains so grand
If you give me your hand

Just give me your hand and come along with me
Will you give me your hand and the world it can see
That we can be free in peace and harmony
From the north to the south, from the east to the west
Every mountain, every valley, every bush and bird's nest

By day and night throughout struggle and strife
I'm beside you to guide you forever, my love
For love's not for one but for both of us to share
For this country so fair, for our world and what's there

Just give me your hand, is tabhair dom do lámh
Will you give me your hand, for the world it is ours
All the sea and the land to destroy or command
If you give me your hand

Just give me your hand in a gesture of peace
Just give me your hand and all troubles will cease
The strong and the weak, both the rich and the poor
All peoples and creeds, let's meet their needs
With a passion we can fashion a new world of love

By day and night throughout struggle and strife
I'm beside you to guide you forever my love
For love's not for one but for both of us to share
For this country so fair, for our world and what's there
