Early next morning the ship was sailing
Keesokan paginya kapal itu sedang berlayar
Queenstown harbour, the Cobh of Cork
Pelabuhan Queenstown, Cobh dari Cork
Eight long days he was sailing over
Delapan hari yang panjang dia berlayar
Till he landed in New York
Sampai dia mendarat di New York

Up the street young Paddy wandered
Di jalan muda Paddy mengembara
Each big building caught his eye
Setiap bangunan besar menarik perhatiannya
Looking up at a big shop window,
Melihat ke jendela toko besar,
A bottle of whisky he did spy
Sebotol wiski yang dimilikinya

Into the bar young Paddy entered
Ke bar muda Paddy masuk
Called for a drink, without delay
Dipanggil untuk minum, tanpa penundaan
Give me a drop of that Irish Whisky,
Beri aku setetes Whiskey Irlandia itu,
Four big coppers I will pay
Empat keping besar yang akan saya bayar

The landlord he jumped over the counter
Tuan tanah itu melompati meja kasir
“Pay me down that bill”, he said
“Bayar saya tagihan itu”, katanya
Paddy up with a big shillelagh
Paddy dengan shillelagh besar
Laid him on the floor right dead
Laid dia di lantai benar mati

So the Yankees they came running
Jadi Yankees mereka datang berlari
When they heard about the row
Saat mereka mendengar tentang barisan
Trying to kill poor Irish Paddy,
Mencoba membunuh Paddy Irlandia yang malang,
Shouting out, “Where is he now?!”
Berteriak keluar, “Dimana dia sekarang ?!”

Irishmen they followed after
Orang Irlandia yang mereka ikuti
Following without delay
Mengikuti tanpa penundaan
Each of them with a big shillelagh,
Masing-masing dengan shillelagh besar,
Made the Yankees run away
Membuat Yankee melarikan diri

May God's success to his Irish people
Semoga kesuksesan Tuhan bagi orang-orang Irlandia-nya
Many's the country they have roamed
Banyak negara yang mereka jelajahi
But their courage is far bolder
Tapi keberanian mereka jauh lebih berani
When they're far away from home
Saat mereka jauh dari rumah
