Lyrics The Wolfe Tones

The Wolfe Tones

Gra Mo Chroi

Last night I had a happy dream, though restless where I

be

I thought again, brave Irishmen, had set old Ireland

free

And how excited I became, when I heard the cannon roar

Oh Gra Mo Chroi, I long to see, old Ireland free once

more.

It's true we`ve had brave Irishmen as everyone must

know

O'Neil, O'Donnell, Sarsfield too, Lord Edward and Wolfe

Tone and

Also Robert Emmett who till death did not give o'er

Oh Gra Mo Chroi, I long to see, old Ireland free once

more.

Now we can't forget those former years, they're kept in

memory still

Of the Wexford men of '98, who fought at Vinegar Hill

With Father Murphy by their side, and his green flag

flying o'er

Oh Gra Mo Chroi, I long to see, old Ireland free once

more.

Last night I had a happy dream, though restless where I

be

I thought again, brave Irishmen, had set old Ireland

free

And how excited I became, when I heard the cannon roar

Oh Gra Mo Chroi, I long to see, old Ireland free once

more.

Oh Gra Mo Chroi, I long to see, old Ireland free once

more
