Dubliners

Dubliners - The Wests Awake lyrics

rate me

And if, when all a vigil keep

The West's asleep! the West's asleep!

Alas! and well may Erin weep

That Connacht lies in slumber deep

But, hark! a voice like thunder spake

The West's awake! the West's awake!

Sing, Oh! Hurrah! let England quake

We'll watch till death for Erin's sake

(Instrummental)

(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!

Chorus:

A Nation once again,

A Nation once again,

And lreland, 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!
