A Nation Once Again
A nation once again,
A nation once again,
And Ireland long a providence be
A nation once again.
And from that time through wildest woe
that hope has shone a far light
Nor could love's brightest summer glow
outshine that solemn starlight
It seemed to watch above my head
in forum fields and fame
It's angle voice sang 'round my head a nation once again.
A nation once again,
A nation once again,
And Ireland long a providence be
A nation once again
So as I grew from boy to man
I bent me to that bidding
My spirit of each selfish plan
and cruel passion ridding
For thus I hope some day to aid
oh can such hope be vain
When my dear country should be made
a nation once again.
A nation once again,
A nation once again,
And Ireland long a providence be
A nation once again.
A nation once again,
And Ireland long a providence be
A nation once again.
And from that time through wildest woe
that hope has shone a far light
Nor could love's brightest summer glow
outshine that solemn starlight
It seemed to watch above my head
in forum fields and fame
It's angle voice sang 'round my head a nation once again.
A nation once again,
A nation once again,
And Ireland long a providence be
A nation once again
So as I grew from boy to man
I bent me to that bidding
My spirit of each selfish plan
and cruel passion ridding
For thus I hope some day to aid
oh can such hope be vain
When my dear country should be made
a nation once again.
A nation once again,
A nation once again,
And Ireland long a providence be
A nation once again.
