[00:16.913]As down the glen one Easter morn to a city fair rode I
[00:34.656]There Armed lines of marching men in squadrons passed me by
[00:51.167]No pipe did hum, no battle drum did sound its loud tattoo
[01:09.662]But the Angelus Bell o'er the Liffey's swell rang out through the foggy dew
[01:35.414]Right proudly high over Dublin Town they hung out the flag of war
[01:45.668]'Twas better to die 'neath an Irish sky than at Suvla or Sud-El-Bar
[01:56.418]And from the plains of Royal Meath strong men came hurrying through
[02:07.413]While Britannia's Huns, with their long range guns sailed in through the foggy dew
[02:29.419]Oh the bravest fell, and the Requiem bell rang mournfully and clear
[02:39.416]For those who died that Eastertide in the spring time of the year
[02:50.165]And the world did gaze, in deep amaze, at those fearless men, but few,
[03:00.673]Who bore the fight that freedom's light might shine through the foggy dew
[03:52.425]As back through the glen I rode again and my heart with grief was sore
[04:17.176]For I parted then with valiant men whom I never shall see more
[04:34.932]But to and fro in my dreams I go and I kneel and pray for you,
[04:53.174]For slavery fled, O glorious dead, when you fell in the foggy dew.
