The Wolfe Tones - 1916 Remembered. The Easter Rising.

A Nation Once Again

Thank you boys and girls
We're gonna finish up
And it remains with one song, I think
And a song and a ballad written by Thomas Davis
Thomas Davis wrote some of our finest national ballads
This one certainly had to be one of his greatest
Here's Tommy to sing, with you all I hope, "A Nation Once Again"

When boyhood's fire was in my blood
I read of ancient freemen
For Greece and Rome who bravely stood
Three hundred men and three men

And then I prayed I yet might see
Our fetters rent in twain
And Ireland, long a province, be
A Nation once again!

A Nation once again
A Nation once again
And lreland, long a province, be
A Nation once again!

And, as I grew from boy to man
I bent me to that bidding
My spirit of each selfish plan
With cruel passion ridding

But yet I hoped some day to aid
Oh, can such hope be vain?
When my dear country will be made
A Nation once again! (Everybody)

A Nation once again
A Nation once again
And lreland, long a province, be
A Nation once again! (Once more)

A Nation once again
A Nation once again
And lreland, long a province, be
A Nation once again!
