The Victory of the Boyne" Verse 1 On a morning bright in ninety, The sun shone in the sky, Two armies met on Irish soil, Their banners flying high. King William led the Protestant cause, With courage and with might, And on the banks of the River Boyne, He won the glorious fight. Chorus For the Boyne, for the Boyne, Where freedom won the day, King Billy stood for liberty, And swept the foe away. Let every loyal heart proclaim, The victory divine, Our faith and crown forever safe, From the Battle of the Boyne. --- Verse 2 The cannons roared, the swords they clashed, The river turned to red, But William’s men stood firm and true, And faced the foe ahead. The Jacobites were broken, Their cause was left to wane, And Protestant hearts rejoiced that day, With William on the plain. Chorus
