IRISH SONGS AND LYRICS 223
Oh ! let its memory be enshrined
In Ireland's heart forever ! It proves a banded people's mind
Must win in just endeavor; It shows how wicked to despair,
How weak to idly groan — If ills at other's hands ye bear,
The cure is in your own.
The foolish word "impossible"
At once, for aye, disdain ! No power can bar a people's will,
A people's right to gain. Be bold, united, firmly set,
Nor flinch in word or tone — We'll be a glorious nation yet,
Redeemederectalone !
