Last night I had a happy dream, though restless where I
be
I thought again, brave Irishmen, had set old Ireland
free
And how excited I became, when I heard the cannon roar
Oh Gra Mo Chroi, I long to see, old Ireland free once
more.
It's true we`ve had brave Irishmen as everyone must
know
O'Neil, O'Donnell, Sarsfield too, Lord Edward and Wolfe
Tone and
Also Robert Emmett who till death did not give o'er
Oh Gra Mo Chroi, I long to see, old Ireland free once
more.
Now we can't forget those former years, they're kept in
memory still
Of the Wexford men of '98, who fought at Vinegar Hill
With Father Murphy by their side, and his green flag
flying o'er
Oh Gra Mo Chroi, I long to see, old Ireland free once
more.
Last night I had a happy dream, though restless where I
be
I thought again, brave Irishmen, had set old Ireland
free
And how excited I became, when I heard the cannon roar
Oh Gra Mo Chroi, I long to see, old Ireland free once
more.
Oh Gra Mo Chroi, I long to see, old Ireland free once
more
