Banna Strand - The Wolfe Tones[00:00:00]

Twas on good Friday morning[00:00:14]

All in the month of may[00:00:20]

A German ship was signalling[00:00:24]

Beyond out in the bay[00:00:29]

We had twenty thousand rifles[00:00:33]

All ready for to land[00:00:38]

But no answering signal did come[00:00:42]

From the lonely banna strand[00:00:46]

No signal answers from the shore[00:00:54]

Sir roger sadly said[00:00:59]

No comrades here to meet me[00:01:03]

Alas they must be dead[00:01:08]

But I must do my duty[00:01:12]

And at once I mean to land[00:01:17]

So in a small boat rowed ashore[00:01:22]

On the lovely banna strand[00:01:26]

Now the r i c were hunting[00:01:33]

For sir roger high and low[00:01:36]

They found him in mckenna's fort[00:01:42]

Said they you are our foe[00:01:47]

Said he I'm roger casement[00:01:52]

I came to my native land[00:01:57]

I mean to free my countrymen[00:02:01]

On the lonely banna strand[00:02:06]

They took sir roger prisoner[00:02:12]

And sailed for London town[00:02:18]

And in the tower they laid him[00:02:22]

A traitor to the crown[00:02:27]

Said he I am no traitor[00:02:31]

But his trial he had to stand[00:02:36]

For bringing German rifles[00:02:40]

To the lonely banna strand[00:02:43]

Twas in an English prison[00:02:52]

That they led him to his death[00:02:57]

I'm dying for my country[00:03:01]

He said with his last breath[00:03:06]

They buried him in British soil[00:03:10]

Far from his native land[00:03:15]

And the wild waves sing his requiem[00:03:20]

On the lonely banna strand[00:03:23]

They took sir roger home again[00:03:43]

In the year of '65[00:03:47]

And with his comrades of '16[00:03:52]

In peace and tranquil lies[00:03:57]

His last fond wish it is fulfilled[00:04:01]

For to lie in his native land[00:04:06]

And the waves will roll in peace again[00:04:10]

On the lonely banna strand[00:04:15]
