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 death for Erin's sake

(A Nation Once Again)

When boyhood's fire was in my blood
I read of ancient freemen,
For Greece and Rome who bravely stood, Dubliners - The Wests Awake - http://motolyrics.com/dubliners/the-wests-awake-lyrics.html
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!
