Padraic Pearse - The Wolfe Tones[00:00:00]

In Dublin town in nineteen sixteen[00:00:07]

A flame of freedom did arise [00:00:10]

A group of men with determination[00:00:15]

Caught an empire by surprise[00:00:18]

Through the streets our men were marching[00:00:23]

They rallied with their hopes and fears[00:00:25]

And the Enda boys came searching[00:00:28]

For their leader Padraig Pearse [00:00:31]

The poet and the Irish rebel[00:00:36]

A Gaelic scholar and a visionary[00:00:39]

We gave to him no fitting tribute[00:00:43]

When Ireland's at peace only that can be[00:00:46]

When Ireland's a nation united and free [00:00:51]

On Easter morn' he faced the nation[00:00:58]

From the steps of the G P O [00:01:00]

And read aloud the proclamation [00:01:05]

The seed of nationhood to sow [00:01:08]

But soon the word had spread to[00:01:13]

London of an insurrection there at hand[00:01:15]

And the deeds of Padraic Pearse[00:01:18]

Was set about to free his land [00:01:21]

The poet and the Irish rebel[00:01:26]

A Gaelic scholar and a visionary[00:01:29]

We gave to him no fitting tribute[00:01:33]

When Ireland's at peace only that can be[00:01:36]

When Ireland's a nation united and free [00:01:41]

For five long days the battle rages [00:01:48]

For five long nights the battle wore[00:01:50]

He watch as Dublin City blazes[00:01:55]

And see his men fall through the floor[00:01:58]

No Ireland's proud of his effort for her[00:02:03]

'Cause we fought with pride[00:02:06]

To save more life to save our city [00:02:08]

We make our peace McFainis cried [00:02:11]

The poet and the Irish rebel[00:02:16]

A Gaelic scholar and a visionary[00:02:19]

We gave to him no fitting tribute[00:02:23]

When Ireland's at peace only that can be[00:02:26]

When Ireland's a nation united and free [00:02:31]

Kilmainham Jail in 1916 [00:02:39]

They brought young Pearse to his death cell[00:02:42]

And they have tried him as a traitor[00:02:46]

To shoot this man who dared to rebel[00:02:49]

He only tried to free his country[00:02:54]

Of the shackles of 800 years [00:02:57]

When dawn did break on that May morning[00:03:00]

They shot our Leader Padraic Pearse [00:03:02]

The poet and the Irish rebel[00:03:08]

A Gaelic scholar and a visionary[00:03:10]

We gave to him no fitting tribute[00:03:15]

When Ireland's at peace only that can be[00:03:18]

When Ireland's a nation united and free[00:03:23]
