   and beastly betrayed.
   They came in their fast travelling lorries with many a strong armoured car,
   With Louis guns, rifles and bayonets and splendid equipment for war.
   To the mountains those brave boys did fly but the guns played a merciless range
   They were shot down like partridge in clover and six of the brave boys were slain.
   Chorus
   Then pray for Beirne, Baxwell and the two O'Reillys, Seamus Ryan and brave Sean Connolly
   Six, who gave up their lives, friends and life's blood, and died that our land would be free.
   III
   If you pass on a bright Summer's evening, you'll see all the children keel in prayer,
   And if you ask them the reason they'll tell you that six Irish heroes lie there.
   May God bless the cause of our freedom for which those martyrs so patiently died
   May their names remain fresh in our memories - those heroes of chivalrous pride.
   Beloved and respected and honoured forgotten they never will be
   While the stars twinkle bright o'er Glostrum and the Shannon sweeps on to the sea" Chorus
   The above poem was composed by Patrick Martin
