Kelly the Boy from Killane - Luke Kelly[00:00:00]
What's the news what's the news o me bold shelmalier[00:00:19]
With your long barrel guns from the sea[00:00:23]
Say what wind from the south brings a messenger here[00:00:28]
With this hymn of the dawn for the free[00:00:32]
Goodly news goodly news do I bring youth of forth[00:00:37]
Goodly news shall I hear bargy man[00:00:41]
For the boys march at morn from the south to the north[00:00:46]
Led by Kelly the boy from Killane[00:00:50]
Tell me who is the giant with the gold curling hair[00:00:54]
He who rides at the head of your band[00:00:59]
Seven feet is his height with some inches to spare[00:01:03]
And he looks like a king in command[00:01:08]
O me boys that's the pride of the bold shelmalier[00:01:12]
'Mongst our greatest of heroes a man[00:01:16]
Fling your beavers aloft and give three ringing cheers[00:01:20]
For John Kelly the boy from killane[00:01:25]
Enniscorthy is in flames and old wexford is won[00:01:29]
Tomorrow the barrow will 'cross[00:01:33]
On the hill o'er the town we have planted a gun[00:01:38]
That will batter the gateway to ross[00:01:42]
All the forth men and bargy men will march o'er the heath[00:01:46]
With brave harvey to lead in the van[00:01:50]
But the foremost of all in the grim gap of death[00:01:54]
Will be Kelly the boy from killane[00:01:59]
But the gold sun of freedom grew darkened at ross[00:02:03]
And it set by the slaney's red wave[00:02:10]
And poor wexford stripped naked hung high on a 'cross[00:02:16]
With her heart pierced by traitors and knaves[00:02:23]
Glory o glory o to her brave men who died[00:02:30]
For the 'cause of long down trodden man[00:02:35]
Glory o to mount leinster's own darling and pride[00:02:39]
Dauntless Kelly the boy from killane[00:02:43]
