Verse 1:

From the hills over Madden where the amber streams flow

Through the heart of the orchard where the apple trees grow

There's a spirit that gathers, there’s a story retold

Oh, the brave Red and Black, they’re more precious than gold

 

Chorus 2:

Oh, up Madden, up Madden, the Raparee’s,

Our chorus is carried on the sweet Armagh breeze

And we'll raise up our voices, we’ll cheer every score

For the red and the black we adore,

For the club that we’ll love evermore.

 

Verse 2:

For the crest on the jersey, we'll fight, and we'll stand

For the pride of our people, for the love of our land!

From the throw-in to final and whatever the cost,

For the battles we've won and the ones that we've lost.

 

Chorus 2:

Oh, up Madden, up Madden, the Raparee’s,

Our chorus is carried on the sweet Armagh breeze

And we'll raise up our voices, we’ll cheer every score

For the red and the black I adore,

For the club that I’ll love evermore.

 

Chorus 2:

Oh, up Madden, up Madden, the Raparee’s,

Our chorus is carried on the sweet Armagh breeze

And we'll raise up our voices, we’ll cheer every score

For the red and the black I adore,

For the club that I’ll love evermore.

 

Conclusion:

It’s the heart of the club I’ll defend evermore,

I’ll believe in the red and the black I adore
