More and more and worse and worse
Grew the oppression of the French
Worse and worse and less and less
Their respect for the promises made
The Breton people rose in arms,
Time and again put down in blood
The Red Bonnet rebels of Kernew
Were communards before their time
More and more and worse and worse
Grew the oppression of the French
Worse and worse and less and less
Their respect for the promises made
On every tree on each high way
A peasant body hanging high
In Brittany the French, in Ireland the English
Were each as cruel as the other
More and more and worse and worse
Grew the oppression of the French
Worse and worse and less and less
Their respect for the promises made
Traditions of fraternity
Continued still in these terrible times
But respect for the ancient ways
Was under attack from the Holy Church
