Traditional The Minstrel Boy - Britten[00:00:00]
The minstrel boy to the war is gone [00:00:07]
In the ranks of death you'll find him;[00:00:11]
His father's sword he has girded on [00:00:16]
And his wild harp slung behind him;[00:00:21]
"Land of Song " said the warrior bard [00:00:28]
"Though all the world betrays thee [00:00:33]
One sword at least thy rights shall guard [00:00:38]
One faithful harp shall praise thee "[00:00:43]
The Minstrel fell But the foeman's chain[00:00:54]
Could not bring his proud soul under;[00:00:58]
The harp he loved ne'er spoke again [00:01:04]
For he tore its chords asunder;[00:01:10]
And said "No chains shall sully thee [00:01:16]
Thou soul of love and bravery [00:01:22]
Thy songs were made for the pure and free[00:01:28]
They shall never sound in slavery "[00:01:33]
