- (continued from previous page)Sought foreign shores again
Where long I stayed till bent with toil
And now an old "ceann bán"
I'm back again to feast my eyes
Once more on sweet BarnaneVII
I stand today where I once stood
Oh what a blessed scene
The land is full of happy homes
Where bullocks once had been
The tyrants' power is nearly gone
Their fangs are all but drawn
The sturdy toiler is a slave
No longer in BarnaneVIII
For though but fear the people rose
Resolved to have their rights
And fought the hireling of the law
In many a hundred fights
And won the day all foreign lords
Their coronets should pawn
If Irishmen would battle like
The heroes of Barnane.(continues on next page)- Collector
