The Blackbird Of Sweet Avondale - WordHarmonic[00:00:00]
By the sweet bay of Dublin while carelessly strolling[00:00:00]
I sat myself down by a clear green myrtle shade[00:00:11]
Reclined on the beach as the wild waves were rolling[00:00:21]
In sorrowful condoling I saw a fair maid[00:00:32]
Her robes changed to mourning[00:00:44]
Which once were so glorious[00:00:49]
I stood in amazement to hear her sad wail[00:00:53]
Her heartstrings burst forth with wild accents uproarious[00:01:03]
Saying where is my blackbird of sweet Avondale[00:01:12]
The fowlers man waylaid him in hopes to ensnare him[00:01:21]
While I here in sorrow[00:01:31]
His absence bewail[00:01:35]
Oh it grieves me to think that the walls of Kilmainham[00:01:40]
Surround my dear blackbird of sweet Avondale[00:01:50]
Oh Ireland my country[00:02:15]
Awake from your slumbers[00:02:20]
And bring back my blackbird[00:02:25]
So true unto me[00:02:30]
Let everyone know[00:02:35]
By the strength of your numbers[00:02:39]
That Ireland a nation[00:02:45]
So longs to be free[00:02:50]
Oh heaven[00:02:55]
Give ear to my consultation[00:02:57]
And strengthen the bold sons of old Granuaile[00:03:04]
The god grant that our country will soon be a nation[00:03:13]
And bring back the blackbird to sweet Avondale[00:03:23]
