Foggy Dew - Dermot O'Brien[00:00:00]

I was down the glen one Easter morn[00:00:07]

To a city fair rode I[00:00:12]

There armed lines of marching men[00:00:18]

In squadrons passed me by[00:00:24]

No pipe did hum[00:00:30]

No battle drum did sound its loud tattoo[00:00:33]

But the Angelus Bells or the Liffey swells[00:00:42]

Rang out in the foggy dew[00:00:48]

Right proudly high over Dublin town[00:00:59]

They Hung out a flag of war[00:01:05]

Was better to die neath that Irish sky[00:01:11]

Than at Sulva or Sud el Bar[00:01:17]

And from the plains of Royal Meath[00:01:22]

Strong men came hurrying through[00:01:29]

While Brittania's Huns with their long range guns[00:01:34]

Sailed in through the foggy dew[00:01:40]

Twas Britannia bade our Wild Geese go[00:01:52]

That small nations might be free[00:01:58]

But their lonely graves are by Sulva's waves[00:02:03]

Or the shore of the Great North Sea[00:02:09]

Oh had they died by Pearse's side[00:02:15]

Or fought with Cathal[00:02:21]

Their names we will keep where the fenians sleep[00:02:27]

Neath the shroud of the foggy dew[00:02:33]

But the bravest fell and the requiem bell[00:02:38]

Rang mournfully and clear[00:02:45]

For those who died that Easter tide[00:02:50]

In the springing of the year[00:02:56]

And the world did gaze in deep amaze[00:03:02]

At those fearless men but few[00:03:08]

Who bore the fight that freedom's light[00:03:14]

Might shine through the foggy dew[00:03:20]

Foggy dew[00:03:25]
