- Hurrah for the land where the Shamrock is green,
Hurrah for the land where fair maidens are seen,
The hills of Old Breffni fore'er may they be,
The nurse of the Fair and the home of the Free. The Lords of Old Breffni were valiant and proud,
By dangers undaunted, by foemen uncowed,
Shall we, their descendants, surrender like slaves
While landlords and peelers exult o'er their graves.The chieftains of Breffni, right keen were their blades,
And bright were the plumes of their flashing cockades,
Thy cliffs, Slieve-an-Erin, have echoed their cheers,
While the blood of the Saxon was red on their spears.(continues on next page)- Collector
