Dubliners - The Wests Awake lyrics

And if, when all a vigil keep The West's asleep! The West's asleep! Alas! And well may Erin weep That Connacht lies in slumber deep But, hark! A voice like thunder spake The West's awake! The West's awake! Sing, Oh! Hurrah! Let England quake We'll watch till d**h for Erin's sake (Instrummental) (A Nation Once Again) When boyhood's fire was in my blood I read of ancient freemen For Greece and Rome who bravely stood Three hundred men and three men; And then I prayed I yet might see Our fetters rent in twain And Ireland, long a province, be A Nation once again! Chorus: A Nation once again A Nation once again And lreland, long a province, be A Nation once again! A Nation once again A Nation once again And lreland, long a province, be A Nation once again!
