The Foggy Dew

My Eyes Have Seen专辑

  • Oh, down the glen I went one morn,
    To a city there rode I.
    There Ireland's lines of marchin' men
    In squadrons passed me by.
    No pipe did hum, nor no battle drum
    Did send it straight and true.
    Nor the Angelus bell o'er the Liffey swell
    Rang out in the foggy dew.
    Right proudly high over Dublin town
    They hung out the flag of war,
    For 'twas better to die 'neath a Dublin sky
    Than at Suvla or Sud-el-bar.
    And from the plains of Royal Meath
    Strong men came hurryin' through,
    For Britannia's sons with their long-range guns
    Sailed in through the foggy dew.
    The bravest fell, and the solemn bell
    Rang mournfully and clear
    For those that died that Eastertide
    In the springtime of the year.
    The world could gaze with deep amaze
    At those fairest men but true
    Who bore the fight that freedom's light
    Might shine through the foggy dew.
