- (continued from previous page)And all declared that our case must go.
When in the conference of all powerful nations
Who saw our suffering in grief and pain
And the Russian freeman emancipated
Will free old Ireland and up Sinn Fein. Archbishop Walsh is our country's saviour
Preaching his programme will make history
O Dwyer, our Bishop will not forsake us.
And honoured pastors like Fr Dee
Brave Fr Flanagan and Ferris saintly
And Count Plunkett with us remain
And Larry Ginnell will take his station
Among Irelands heroes and up Sinn Fein. As the chosen people were led by Moses
To the land of Promise thro' desert sand
And our St Patrick the faith has shown us
And God gave us leaders both true and grand
And English tyrants as bad as Pharaoh.
And the plagues of Egypt will risk[?] again
Three cheers for Ireland and up Sinn Fein.
