who fears to speak of easter week - landless (irl) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
who fears to speak of easter week, that week of famed renown
when the boys in green went out to fight, the forces of the crown
with mausers bold and hearts of gold, and the countess dressed in green
and high above the g.p.o, that rebel flag was seen

[verse 2]
then came ten thousand khaki coats, our rebel boys to k!ll
before they reached o’connell street, of fight they got their fill
they’d machine guns and artillery and cannon in galore;
it’s not our fault that e’er a one, got back to england’s shore

[verse 3]
for six long days wе held them off at odds of ten*to*onе
and through our lines they could not pass for all their heavy guns
a deadly poison gas they used, to try a [?] gain
and they burned our lovely capital, like the germand did louvain

[verse 4]
they shot our leaders in a gaol, without a trial, they say;
they murdered women and children who in their dungeons lay
they dug their graves with gun and spade to hide them from our view
but they’d neither catch nor k!ll the rebels bold and true

[verse 5]
they rose in dark and evil days to right their native land
they kindled here a living blaze that nothing shall withstand
alas, that might can vanquish right, they fell and passed away
but true men, like you, men, are plenty here today
