A Nation Once Again - The Dubliners[00:00:00]
When boyhood's fire was in my blood[00:00:09]
I read of ancient freemen[00:00:13]
Of Greece and Rome who bravely stood[00:00:18]
Three hundred men and three men[00:00:22]
And then I prayed I yet might see[00:00:26]
Our fetters rent in twain[00:00:31]
And Ireland long a province be[00:00:35]
A nation once again[00:00:39]
A nation once again a nation once again[00:00:44]
And Ireland long a province be a nation once again[00:00:52]
And from that time through wildest woe[00:01:00]
That hope has shown a far light[00:01:04]
Nor could love's brightest summer glow[00:01:09]
Outshine that solemn starlight[00:01:13]
It seem to watch above my head[00:01:17]
Through foreign fields and fame[00:01:21]
It's angel voice sang 'round my bed[00:01:25]
A nation once again[00:01:29]
A nation once again a nation once again[00:01:33]
And Ireland long a province be a nation once again[00:01:41]
So as I grew from boy to man[00:01:50]
I bent me to my bidding[00:01:54]
My spirit of each selfish plan[00:01:58]
And cruel passion ridding[00:02:02]
For thus I hope some day to wake[00:02:06]
Nor can such hope be vain[00:02:10]
When my dear country shall be made[00:02:14]
A nation once again[00:02:19]
A nation once again[00:02:23]
A nation once again[00:02:26]
And Ireland long a province be[00:02:31]
A nation once again[00:02:35]
