   And straightaway obeyed
   He counted not the bitter cost
   Nor tarried, nor delayed.
   On Dripsey's field when fighting hard
   For dear, dark Rosaleen.
   He, wounded fell beneath her flag
   The yellow, white and green

   
   To-day he sleeps his last long sleep
   Beneath the emerald sod,
   His soul has found a happy home
   High in the halls of God.
   His comrades dear, who loved him well,
   His friends in Donoughmore
   Alas; shall see his kindly face
   And beaming smile no more

   
   Ah; he had hoped to see the day
   When Banba's shore would be
   Both North and South both East and West
   From foreign fetters free
   But God had willed that he should fall
   A martyr in the fray
   Before would break across the land
   The dawn of Freedom's days.

   
   His name shall shine on history's page
