Who took up their arms that winter dawn, Who to Glenumbria came To raise their hand, 'Gainst tyrants stand And to die in freedom's name? Who stood on the field upon that hour, Who answered Direnni's call? Men Breton-born all came that morn To defend the land for all.

CHORUS: Rise, rise to freedom rise, Arise ye Breton sons and daughters! Ride, ride to freedom ride, Truth and glory to the brave! And when the battle it was joined Alessians three to one, The sky lit bright With magic's light And with magic it was won.

For all they stood on blessed ground Whence all her power came The rocks would yield What might they wield All in Direnni's name.

CHORUS REPRISE

So children of this Breton land Ye best remember well All those who for High Rock stood Brian, Ancois, Rielle; Men of the north, All who stood forth Till all oppressors fell.
