《The Grave Of Wolfe Tone》歌词

[00:00:00] In Bodenstown churchyard there is a green grave
[00:00:07] And wildly around it the winter winds rave;
[00:00:13] Small shelter I ween are the ruined walls there
[00:00:20] When the storm sweeps down on the plains of Kildare
[00:00:28] Once I lay on that sod it lies over Wolfe Tone
[00:00:34] And thought how he perished in prison alone
[00:00:40] His friends unavenged and his country unfreed
[00:00:46] "Oh bitter " I said "is the patriots meed
[00:00:53] "For in him the heart of a woman combined
[00:01:00] With heroic spirit and a governing mind
[00:01:06] A martyr for Ireland his grave has no stone
[00:01:13] His name sheldom named and his virtues unknown "
[00:01:22] I was woke from my dream by the voices and tread
[00:01:29] Of a band who came into the home of the dead;
[00:01:35] They carried no corpse and they carried no stone
[00:01:42] And they stopped when they came to the grave of Wolfe
[00:01:48] Tone
[00:01:50] There were students and peasants the wise and the
[00:01:55] Brave
[00:01:57] And an old man who knew him from cradle to grave
[00:02:03] And children who thought me hard-hearted for they
[00:02:10] On that sanctified sod were forbidden to play
[00:02:18] But the old man who saw I was mourning there said:
[00:02:24] "We come sir to weep where young Wolfe Tone is laid
[00:02:31] And we're going to raise him a monument too
[00:02:37] A plain one yet fit for the loyal and true "
[00:02:45] My heart overflowed and I clasped his old hand
[00:02:51] And I blessed him and blessed every one of his band:
[00:02:57] "Sweet sweet tis to find that such faith can remain
[00:03:04] In the cause and the man so long vanquished and slain "
[00:03:12] In Bodenstown churchyard there is a green grave
[00:03:19] And freely around it let winter winds rave
[00:03:26] Far better they suit him the ruin and gloom
[00:03:32] Till Ireland a nation can build him a tomb
