I
Brave Captain O'Rackrent one evening in June.
When all nature lay smiling beneath the bright moon.
Went out for a ramble the fresh air to breathe
where Borora's stream, waters the green plains of Meath.
II
In a coat of Chain armour. his honour was dressed
While a six barrell revolver lay snug in his breast
For all that his conscience was no way at ease.
When he thought of the hundreds he drove o'er the seas.
III
And of others who sleep in their dark workhouse grave.
And their bones that lay snug beneath the bright waves.
