LUKE KELLY
- A Nation Once Again Lyrics / with translations(Thomas Davis)
When boyhood's fire was in my blood, I read of ancient
free men
Of Greece and Rome who bravely stood, three hundred men
and free 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 Ireland long a province 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 watched above my head, through forum,
field and fain
It's angel voice sang round me bed, a nation once again
Chorus:
A nation once again, a nation once again
And Ireland long a province be, a nation once again
So as I grew from boy to man, I bent thee to my bidding
My spirit of each selfish plan and cruel passion
ridding
For thus I hope someday to aid, nor can such hope be
vain
When my dear country shall be made, a nation once again
Chorus:
A nation once again, a nation once again
And Ireland long a province be, a nation once again
When boyhood's fire was in my blood, I read of ancient
free men
Of Greece and Rome who bravely stood, three hundred men
and free 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 Ireland long a province 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 watched above my head, through forum,
It's angel voice sang round me bed, a nation once again
Chorus:
A nation once again, a nation once again
And Ireland long a province be, a nation once again
So as I grew from boy to man, I bent thee to my bidding
My spirit of each selfish plan and cruel passion
ridding
For thus I hope someday to aid, nor can such hope be
vain
When my dear country shall be made, a nation once again
Chorus:
A nation once again, a nation once again
And Ireland long a province be, a nation once again
