《A Nation Once Again》歌词

[00:00:00] A Nation Once Again - Dermot O'Brien

[00:00:08] When boyhood's fire was in my blood

[00:00:13] I read of ancient freemen

[00:00:17] For Greece and Rome who bravely stood

[00:00:21] Three hundred men and three men;

[00:00:26] And then I prayed I yet might see

[00:00:30] Our fetters rent in twain

[00:00:34] And Ireland long a province be

[00:00:38] A Nation once again

[00:00:42] A Nation once again

[00:00:46] A Nation once again

[00:00:51] And lreland long a province be

[00:00:55] A Nation once again

[00:00:58]

[00:01:03] And from that time through wildest woe

[00:01:07] That hope has shone a far light

[00:01:12] Nor could love's brightest summer glow

[00:01:16] Outshine that solemn starlight;

[00:01:20] It seemed to watch above my head

[00:01:24] In forum field and fane

[00:01:28] Its angel voice sang round my bed

[00:01:33] A Nation once again

[00:01:37] A Nation once again

[00:01:41] A Nation once again

[00:01:45] And Ireland long a province be

[00:01:50] A Nation once again

[00:01:57] So as I grew from boy to man

[00:02:02] I bent me to that bidding

[00:02:06] My spirit of each selfish plan

[00:02:10] And cruel passion ridding;

[00:02:14] For thus I hoped some day to aid

[00:02:19] Oh can such hope be vain

[00:02:23] When my dear country shall be made

[00:02:27] A Nation once again

[00:02:31] A Nation once again

[00:02:35] A Nation once again

[00:02:39] And lreland long a province be

[00:02:44] A Nation once again
