   (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)

   Wither the frosts of life, not long enduring.

   3. Springtime of life,
   Dove on the wing
   Doubling thy strife
   E’en as I sing
   Oh! That some spell would a moment delay thee
   Fain would I pluck thy swift pinions and stay thee

2. Tillers of the Soil

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   1. Has the time not come when the poor man’s home
   Will more attention crave
   There’s a nation’s name and a nations fame
   And a nation’s life to save.
   There is famine’s dread and the fight for bread,
   And death’s rattle as they say,
   In the nation’s breath as she works for death
   With a dwindling peasantry.

   2. There’s a greed for gold with a certain fold
   That does the sceptre wield.
   While there’s drudgery and pay, pay, pay,
   With the man who tills the field
   He is driven away, for he cannot stay
   And never a tear is shed
   He shall not return and his land shall mourn
   For a useful soldier fled.

   3. Let the powers that be, their error see
   Driving out such husbandsmen,
   They can count the spoil from a delerict [sic] soil
   Let them balance their Budget, then!
   The greedy crew the wood may hew
   And carry the water pail
   And wring their hands. Their house in the sands
   Will be strewn about in the gale.

   4. Ye sons of toil that till the soil
   Come rally your land to save.
   And seize the tools from the jobbing fools
   That are digging the nation’s grave
   And in union band on the ramparts stand
   Till each mongrel foeman’s fled
   Or politics that would dare to fix
   The price of the nation’s bread.
