              Verses transcribed Padraic Ó Briain, Rath Camp:

              They lost! But O! They conquer
              These men who their land would save
              A firing party at break of day.
              And a tasty quick-lime grave.

              But think not of them with scorn
              Nor mourn for the cause they died
              This death saved Ireland's honour
              What mattered all else beside.

              We've been told twas a failure by those that ne'er understood
              How the new born soul of Erin was baptised in martyrs' blood
              And to all who crave for freedom, as the world its
              meaning know, I give them this little story
              The story of Glorious Easter Week.
