The sun in summer's splendour now
Shines on the Insurgents ranks
Keen are the pikes their handles grew
Along the Slaney's banks;
An ashen forest shod with steel
Oh, well may Johnson pine
For his serried ranks in death shall reel
Before that fighting line.
5.
The bugle sounds to arms
The trumpets note is shrill
But disension and confusion reign
In the camp at Corbett Hill;
The chieftains are divided
Some counsel to fall back
But gallant Kelly of Killanne
Prepares for the attack.
6.
A volley from the redcoats
Stretched Furlong on the field
And the English general, Johnson
Refused the town to yield
Still Genervey stirr'd not,
And idly lay the pike
While the Shelmalers awaited
The order soon to strike
7.
At length with boyish ardour
The brave young hero, Lett
Pointed to the enemy
And waved a bannerette;
At headlong speed he rushed on
The foremost British square
And as he went he shouted
"Follow me who dare."
8.
Ten thousand pikes are gleaming
With Kelly in the van
Shot and shell came screaming
Still young Lett led them on
Dwyer, Cloney and Byrne
Charge Skerrit's Grenadiers
And the scarlet line went down in death
Before the Shelmaliers
9.
Oh! cried the youthful hero
"Follow me who dare"!
And the waving bannerette was seen
'Mid the cannons deadly glare;
Through leaping flame and hissing lead
Though bitter was their loss,
The pikemen swept o'er piles of dead
And swarmed into New Ross.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)- Bailitheoir
