There armoured lines of marching men In squadrons passed me by. No pipe did hum, no battle drum Did sound its loud tattoo But the Angelus bell o'er the Liffy's swell Rang out in the foggy dew. Right proudly high over Dublin town They hung out that flag of war. 'Twas better to die 'neath an Irish sky Than at Suvla or Sud el Bar. And from the plains of Royal Meath Strong men came hurrying through; While Brittania's sons with their long-range guns Sailed in from the foggy dew. it was England bade our wild geese go That small nations might be free. Their lonely graves are by Suvla's waves On the fringe of the grey North Sea. But had they died by Pearse's side Or fought with Cathal Bruagh, Their graves we'd keep where the Fenians sleep 'Neath the shroud of the foggy dew. but the bravest fell, and the requiem bell Rang mournfully and clear For those who died that Eastertide In the springing of the year. And the world did gaze in deep amaze At those fearless men and true Who bore the fight that freedom's light Might shine through the foggy dew. then back through that glen I rode again and my heart with grief was sore for I parted then with valiant men whom I never shall see more and back to and fro in dreams I'll go and I'll kneel and pray for you oh slavery fled oh glorious dead when you fell in the foggy dew ‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒ Purely Apolitical Channel dedicated to the preservation and sharing of Patriotic Songs, Folk Songs and National Anthems.
