Michael Collins - Cruachan[00:00:00]

A volunteer in his nations struggle[00:00:36]

Another soldier in the G P O[00:00:40]

The rising failed our leaders captured[00:00:43]

The English grip would not let go[00:00:47]

But Michael would return to lead us[00:00:50]

In our fight to re-claim our lands[00:00:54]

The I R B will march victorious[00:00:58]

For they shall have the upper hand[00:01:01]

He railled men from far ans wide[00:02:16]

To join the rebellion that lay ahead[00:02:19]

His murder squad was formed in earnest[00:02:23]

The secret service soon lay dead[00:02:27]

In reprisal the British army killed[00:02:30]

Innocent people watching a hurling game[00:02:34]

That day would become a turning point[00:02:37]

Irish psyche would never be the same[00:02:41]

The customs house was set on fire[00:02:51]

The I R B became the I R A[00:02:52]

The time was nigh to call a cease-fire[00:02:54]

July 1th would be that day[00:02:56]

De Valera our elected president[00:02:58]

Knew a republic he would not get[00:02:59]

He sent Collins to meet the British[00:03:01]

He sent Collins to his death[00:03:03]

The British treaty was signed by Collins[00:03:20]

A free state was all they would give[00:03:23]

A step towards independence[00:03:27]

Is better that a war we cannot win[00:03:30]

Many people did not agree with him[00:03:34]

Civil war split the country in two[00:03:37]

Michael would die from an Irish bullet[00:03:41]

He gave his best[00:03:44]

What more could he do[00:03:45]
