   Ere yet was won, to God he's gone Brave Shaun from Corranmore IV A loving mother watched in vain, To see him come victorioius She kneeling prayed, but not again Will he return glorious An angel whispered from the sky, "Come to us evermore." For freedom's sake, he went to die Brave Shaun from Corranmore.

   Lament for Pádraig Pearse

   told by John Mulhern, the author

   I

   
   We leave to God thy every strain

   And into him to guard thy shade,

   And all thou boreth that was pain,

   Thou didst endure for nation's made

   
   II

   
   Uplifted by thy mighty hand,

   Immortal guardian of a land,

   Historic annals crowned with light,

   Shine jewels of thy noble need.
