Minstrel Boy |
| The minstrel boy to the war is gone |
| In the ranks of death you will find him |
| His father’s sword he has girded on |
| And his wild harp slung behind him |
| «Land of Song!» |
| said the warrior bard |
| «Tho' all the world betrays thee |
| One sword, at least, thy rights shall guard |
| One faithful harp shall praise thee!» |
| The Minstrel fell! |
| But the foreman’s chain |
| Could not bring that proud soul under |
| The harp he loved ne’er spoke again |
| For he tore its chords asunder |
| And said «No chains shall sully thee |
| Thou soul of love and bravery! |
| Thy songs were made for the pure and free |
| And shall never sound in slavery!» |
